The apartment house with its compact, flat-roofed mass wants to fit into the rather mixed, heterogeneous environment, the family houses and the flat-roofed, modernist apartment houses built in the second part of the 20th century, - the latter ones with fine details, clinker brick inserts, concrete balconies, natural stone plinths – can be observed, which are the evidence of quality built environment.
The street façade has a two-story design thus forming a connection between the height of the apartment house to the east and the family house to the west. The street view is further nuanced by the steel pergola structure, which can be used to receive a pull-out shade and potentially covered by vegetation.
The tight form and the use of materials in the building evoke the modernist tradition typical of Pécs, the hand-sewn bricks represent durability and quality, and the large window openings are accentuated by thin steel frames. The protruding balconies, the pergola, and the canopy are lightweight metal structures, gently slick onto the brickwork.
The external staircase block, defined as an exposed concrete cube, is connected to the street and the also exposed concrete fence by a concrete bridge that functions as a pedestrian entrance. This additive forming method also involves the high-roofed mass covered with a gray metal sheet at the top of the building, which remains almost unnoticed from the street.
Thus, by defining the rules that create these synergies, the original structure of the building is unveiled. Latent limits are formed, with the shape of a Latin-cross plan, as a result of the structural reality of the tower typology but negating the original internal compartmentalization. This is defined as a “structure” space in which there are no function-associated spaces: living room, waiting room, ballroom or yoga studio; wall bars or shelving unit, an office or a study; an eating room or meeting room, a kitchen or woodworking zone, etc. Spaces are not heirs of their function, but of a series of circumstances related to structure, energy, time or freedom of interpretation from whoever uses, lives, or exploits them.
