Residential Building ‘Nikolausberger Weg’

The six loosely arranged point blocks present an innovative residential concept that skilfully exploits the slope of the site. They mediate between the small-scale detached house development to the south, the multi-storey residential blocks to the north and east and the foothills of the urban forest to the west. With individual garden sections, balconies or roof terraces, they offer a variety of living options that meet the needs of families, singles and couples. The three- to six-storey buildings also include a range of underground car parks and bicycle parking spaces.

The façades of the buildings are horizontally structured with a striking balcony design, so that the design makes reference to the terraced landscape of the surrounding area. The ecologically sophisticated design of the open spaces creates an inviting atmosphere with a high quality of stay and at the same time forms an attractive link to the neighbouring wooded area. The ideas and wishes of the residents were actively taken into account through a close dialogue with them in order to ensure harmonious integration into the old residential area and to create a new and attractive transition zone into nature.
