34 photo: Jacob Gallt photo: Jacob Gallt Frøsilos Islands Brygge Copenhagen Denmark 'Unusual yet obvious' is the best way to describe 's conversion of two grain silos on the harbour front of Copenhagen into high-end housing for the fortunate few The brief suggested filling up the circular silo spaces with apartment floors chose to go the other way about the task and hang the apartments on the outside of the silo walls as a second skin of glass, creating very light and almost outdoor living spaces The silo interiors remain as an industrial version of the atrium, roofed with translucent plastic A prime motivation for this inside-out solution was the relative fragility of the old silo walls regarded the structural weakness of the concrete tubes as a serious limitation because it made it difficult to cut large holes in the walls for windows, without endangering the structural integrity The 84 apartments now range from around 90 to 200 square metres and the balconies add roughly one third to that as outdoor living space photo: Jacob Gallt Public access unknown! 2005 NCC Rasmus_Rune_Nielsen this page is part of Mi guide '' made by rain winter, delft, 34

45 photo: Luuk Kramer photo: Luuk Kramer Twisted Corner Alexander Gogelstraat DV Leiden For this high density area bordering the city centre, in Rotterdam conceived a master plan based on a double ground level: closed building blocks on half sunken parking-lots This allowed for a densely built neighbourhood, but green and with little traffic The house was built for a young family From the beginning, the value of the corner position of the plot was fully exploited The clients were extensively involved in the conception and building process, watching over and nourishing the tectonic quality of the design The lateral façade of the house ending the block presents an intriguing and dynamic play of lines and volume This is brought about by shifts in the orientation of the façade at each of the three floors A transformation of the geometry of the front and back façades over the length of this side is thereby created Four supporting columns in the house are freeing the lateral façade from its load bearing function, enabling this free play photo: Luuk Kramer Project is not public!
