Broelberg housing complex

The Broëlberg housing complex was programmatically formulated to suit a total of 1% of the overall rental market. The client’s program defined an explicit type, with equality among the users as a requirement – a high-end housing for foreigners and expatriates unable to find residential conditions to match their expectations. The context for once was unique, virginal and untouched, in a private park – one of the last remaining protected retreats close to Zurich, with two designated areas in which the housing projects were to be built as two separate islands. The design provided a rigorous location for democratic divisions with vertical layering, ensuring that everyone would have an equal relation to the park. The vertical stacking expresses a menu, with superimposed living models, one on top of the other; a sunken infrastructure, an open-plan, a chamber work of individual rooms and a summerhouse on the roof.
