Titan Next & Senn Badenerstrasse
Zürich CH . 2016 - 2021
The Blüemliquartier today is an intensively
green quarter in the heart of Zurich. The aim is to adequately complement this
density of greening and then develop it further. High-stemmed solitaire trees
stand in groups along the façade and partly overlook the rooftops on the ground
floor. The long-side building line is partially interrupted. In most parts of
the outdoor area, the building will be surrounded by a green lane. The
residents and neighbours receive the possibilities for crossing, encounter and
stay. Small steps will connect the neighboring plots with the green lane and
make this place an intersection of neighborly life. A plate covering is
inserted in a generous surface sprea with gravel, which occasionally widens to
small places.
At the edges there is room for successive vegetation, which forms
a transition to existing private gardens and the accompanying plantations of
perennials and meadows. A striking group of trees forms the center of the
courtyard and appears in relation to the surrounding facades.
