The preparatory work for this project publication was created as part of the building construction theory in the seminar FAÇADE 4.0 by a student work by Laura Schinner.
The Haus am Buddenturm is located in the old town of Münster. Similar to the work "The City at the End of the World" conceived by Lyonel Feininger in the 1920s, the cantilevered storeys show a collectively anchored typology of the urban scale of an old town. The staggered façade is also evident in the interior. In the area of the stairwell, the house increasingly fans out floor by floor to daylight, which enters the house through roof glazing on the eaves walls and in the ridge.
Excerpt from the jury's assessment of the German Brick Award 2019: "The insertion of a new building into the tight, grown network of historic buildings in an old town requires a lot of tact. A distinctly modern house was inserted here, which nevertheless corresponds in scale and roof shape with the old buildings of the neighbors. The austere, rather closed street view is staggered by 2 offsets in the façade clad in reddish-brown clinker brick, which are derived from three different alignments, but give the impression of medieval half-timbered gables. However, the extremely reduced use of surfaces and openings does not allow for an analogy with historicism."
