Case Study – Angensteinerstrasse 15
- Basel
- Narrow and modest in scale, the row house at Angensteinerstrasse 15 hides behind its opulent neo-baroque façade a surprisingly deep sequence of rooms and levels. The interior is both disorienting and coherent, revealing spatial depth and social ambitions of its bourgeois origins.
- Set within Basel’s dense St. Alban quarter, the house forms part of a cultivated ensemble of residences, which together enhance the street edge and contribute to the historic character of the neighbourhood.
- Beyond its already affluent exterior and setting, the interior reveals even greater refinement of architecture.
