Katharina von Bora Strasse 2014 is a proposal by COBE for Stadtwerke München designed in 2014. It is located in Münich Germany in an urban setting. Its scale is large with a surface of 10.500 sqm. Key material is glass. Bloomimages collaborated as visualizer. Concepts such as balcony and folded facade are explored.
The front facade of the apartment building works as an entrance space for the new community. From here you enter the staircases and have direct access to the ground and first floor apartments. This front yard is designed to be accessible to all neighbours in the area and is connected to the green inner courtyard. Every apartment has the opportunity to create a living room with open kitchen that faces both the light from the Southwest and the view to the Northeast. Through a shift in the façade between each floor every apartment is given a balcony as well as a bay window to both sides. Diversity in the community is ensured through a mix of sizes and typologies.
