Preliminary design

Park formulates an answer for different living conditions and for community life. Enhanced flexibility for an enhanced quality of life. Adaptability within the changing conditions of living, from a young couple to different family compositions.

Placing the structure on the exterior boundary and resting everything on the core defines a flexible ribbon for the inner organization of the apartments. In addition, the floor height is larger than classically foreseen in residential projects, thus defining a higher living quality and creating the possibility for the project to exchange functions in the future.

Extended living spaces are an answer to the lack of back gardens. These continuous ribbons of balconies form the exterior space of the apartments define the special quality of the project.

By rotating and shifting the buildings in Park they bring forward a wide-open space creating a communal exterior space for the residents and the surrounding neighbourhoods.
