combines many high-rises in a building

Der Hochhausbau ist eine interessante Bauaufgabe. Deswegen wurden Unter- suchungen in Skizzen angestellt, wie wandlungs- fähig ein und daselbe Hochhaus sein kann.

Die Vorgabe zu dieser Zeichnung war die leitende Idee, ein hohes Bauwerk zu schaffen, das viele transparente und weniger transparente Baukörper in sich vereinigt, sodaß die Volumen, die jeweils gezeigt werden sollten, wechseln konnten.

Zugrunde liegt a column, similar to, had the Adolph Loos designed as a competition idea for a high-rise for the United States. But even in the supposed capital was a ball stored and piled up around the column agglomeration of buildings, should appear can the diversity of the volume.

The shells of the building costs are transparent glass and other building materials. The shaft of the column should by all casings can be seen through.

development of a neighborhood on the North Elbe in Hamburg



I lived several years in Hamburg and at the same time in New York, which had the advantage, again and again to gain some distance on the subject, had to employ me.

Hamburg has many urban problems. The problem is one of the Veddel districts, an area of the North Elbe, which had been built up with housing for dock workers and was in a crisis. The district had to be renewed.

to the river bank out between the Elbe bridges and residential buildings of Veddel, occupied the Hamburg customs free zone of a large area. Here, weekdays by moving trucks inspected and cleared the entry and exit through customs.

It was then called, Hamburg will take out the adjacent area of the Little Grasbrook this week from a free port, because it would be to use for the Olympics. In such a case on the Veddel the site of the Customs Court had been pulled free. For the area close to the Freeport Bridge and the Elbe bridges did these urban sketches. The height of the building has to respect the existing Mietblocks Veddel, a densely built-up area of brick buildings of the Modern Red from Hamburg Schumacher time.

As the Elbe bridges are heavily traveled, is the noise caused by the motorway traffic, the truck traffic from the port and the through traffic lanes through very high. It takes the design consideration.
