Case Study – Villa an der Hardstrasse 1
- Basel
- A busy street, of course you’re seen by a lot of people, but you still can’t shake the feeling that you’re being watched. That’s the impression you get approaching the neo-gothic Villa on Hardtstrasse 1.
- A richly decorated stone bay window with a pointed roof emphasizes the corner facing the busy intersection of the street and the tram station.
- The building radiates dominance over the crossroads, which undoubtedly was the objective of the owner, a wealthy manufacturer.
