Description
The building is an attempt to create a new urban image on the river, bridge and square. A central section of 11 storeys has blocks of 13 storeys on either side. This makes the house look like a double pyramid. At the back, the transition to the older, smaller houses was created as a hard facade without structuring the building masses.
