Sonnengrün Quarter

1st price in competition

Gartenstadt Karlsruhe

78 additional residential units in 9 houses will be built along the western edge of the 100 year old Gartenstadt cooperative in Karlsruhe-Rüppurr. The three-story terraces will be aligned along the "green wall" shielding off the main road.
The apartments will mainly face south and include generous terraces or balconies. Elevators will make the most apartments accessible to disabled individuals.
In spite of reasonably dense compacting, a green and leafy quarter will develop in interplay with the western gardens of Heckenweg.
