Around the Corner

  • Germaniastrasse, 8006 Zürich
  • My project is about establishing and strengthening connections between families that live just around the corner from each other. Creating friendships is especially important during childhood. The friendships that are formed at a young age contribute to the child's quality of life.
  • My main focus was creating a secured shared space connecting four small families in one big playroom where younger children can play and interact with each other.
  • The two buildings are constructed with a timber wood construction, this allows the rooms to easily shift apart from each other and create diagonal connections between the rooms as well as the outside.
