Frauentalweg flats in Zürich
Every flat enjoys the benefits of a splendid view in three directions. The open east-west direction with a view of the Uetliberg mountain and the city is superposed by the introverted intermediate court situation. These semi-private outdoor areas not only liven up the stringent arrangement of the building volumes, but can also be considered as visual extensions of the living areas. The elegant, stretched building units are provided with large glazed surfaces on three sides. The solid northern facade accommodates the staircase, the lift and the service rooms and technical installations.
The living rooms of the flats offer an impressive view of the mountains, the city and the lake towards the east. The basement pushed underneath the building allows the natural slope inclination to be utilised and emphasised so that the building floats placidly above its green environment. On the western side, the apartments benefit from an optimal exposure to the sunlight. All the flats also have attractive balconies which underscore the qualities of the new settlement.
