PROJECT DETAILS

Otto Glaus: Row Houses Asphof, 1967D–1968

  • Zurich, Switzerland, Show on map
  • #RES #CastInPlaceConcrete #Western Europe
  • The main theme of the project is the dialectic of architecture and surroundings. The offset, stepping and overshoot of the six exposed concrete apartment units adapt to the site’s topography, leading to a sculptural overall image. This sculptural treatment of the concrete façade is continued in the interior. The living room walls for example are partly shaped into book shelves.

  • Status unknown: Can you help?
