Six temperaments and a flowerpot
The already existing site for the 450 employees didn’t suffice anymore, so the Swedish architect Rickard Rotstein designed a new building that was tailored with the old one. Within this context very interesting open spaces emerged.
The concept’s main feature is the reference to the entity of living and working. Around the office building and the appartments a playground as well as many small and one big patio shape a green oasis within the city.
