The existing building dates from 1905. With the reconstruction we provide 7 new apartment units. On the east
side of the building historic facade is preserved, being renovated and improving energy efficiency.
On court side of the building existing staircase is demolished and replaced, an additional extension is made in
the same line with staircase as appendix. The existing slab above the first floor of the building is removed, as
well as the entire roof structure and walls above this slab. A new reinforced concrete slab and a new roof floor
is constructed. A new roof structure is constructed, which with its shape longitudinally divides the building into
two units and, at the same time, with the roof landscape, creates a dynamic external appearance as well as an
increase in the quality of living inside the residential units.
The dialogue between the appearance of the historic facade and the modernity of the roof superstructure forms
a new view in this degraded part of the city next to the railway line and a busy road and bribgs a higher
standard of living in the neighborhood. Petroleum green for facade and dark grey for attic and roof add new
charm to surroundings.
