Apartment Buildings

Bricks:
The façade was made from precast concrete elements. Thanks to prefabrication, one storey could be completed per week. Hand-glazed thin bricks with a textured surface in WDF format are set into the concrete elements alternately in vertical and horizontal stacks. The chameleon-like green and bronze tones of the thin bricks create a façade that changes with the light and the time of day, just like the surface of the water surrounding the building.
