The two compact and identical volumes align with the site’s scale, allowing the green space to flow through. Entrances, stairwells, and shared kitchens are positioned on the hillside, creating a connection to the street. All living spaces and 44 of the 46 bedrooms in the 22 apartments are oriented south, west, or east, facing the surrounding greenery.
