ASH Apartments

The ASH Apartments project is planned to be used by 5 brothers, as one apartment for each brother with his own family. The owners had a very limited budget and required a modern building that can be achieved with simple materials, but yet offer a sophisticated good quality design.


The site itself has no specific attributes either than limited views to the sea side from afar, where all the main facades and terraces were oriented. Our proposal was a simple rectangular block made of 3 floors, with a ground floor for services and a basement to be used as a car parking for the apartments.

The building itself was designed as a monolithic volume that is cut from the front side like a stone sculpture. The cutting forms a series of large cavities that include open terraces for each apartment. The cutting form a series of trapezoidal volumes repeating on the faced in different sizes and proportions. The oblique walls of the trapezoidal cut allowed us to gain a dynamic façade with a form and scale that changes with the viewing angel.


The façade was completed with floor to ceiling opening made in matter black aluminum and the terraces has matte black railings and shading screens.
