The apartment building is located in Gr\u00fcnerl\u00f8kka, in an area called Ny York, today one of the most colourful and diverse areas in Oslo. The block is a rare remaining example of the intimate blend of housing and small scale industry typical of the 19th century. The new structure is designed with special appreciation of these environs, and the backyard has with the new build gained an exciting and contrasting fusion of architecture. Featuring distinct architectural form, functional solutions, thoughtful details, and a contemporary overall expression, the building adds a new dimension to the area as well as reflecting the diversity by offering a variation of apartment types to accommodate a range of contemporary living situations. The goal was to create an environment adapted to the situation as well as obtaining an efficient exploitation of the site. The result is twelve entities with seven typological variations, divided on 6 floors, with a range of sizes from 31,5 to 85,5 sqm and both one and two \u2013 floor apartments represented. All apartments have south-facing balconies; in addition the top \u2013 floors have private roof terraces with a great view over Oslo. Towards the street, the north facade is more closed, while the south is open and inviting with its large glazed areas facing the backyard and the great view. Being that most of the apartments are south-facing, the glazed areas bring daylight all the way through the spaces. Kitchen and bathroom is a core through all apartments.<\/p>\n
