Differently sized elements give the facade an interesting appearance.

Irregular arrangement

The architects from Group A designed a student residence. “Blok 1” has 9 floors and a communal terrace. For the facade, the architects used different-sized concrete skin panels with different sand-blasted surfaces. The windows were arranged so that every bedroom gets as much daylight as possible.

The brown color blends harmoniously with the landscape.
The elements are only 13 mm thick.
