The architects consciously created a<br />

“choreography” of <strong>build</strong>ing structures<br />

that accentuates the road space, turning<br />

it into a veritable gateway to the city.<br />

The architects describe this as a “balance<br />

between their structure as identifiable<br />

<strong>build</strong>ings and their integration into an<br />

overall formation” in which “the staggered<br />

construction alternates with complete<br />

incisions into the cubature atop the<br />

continuous two-storey pedestal.” The<br />

roof gardens are almost Mediterranean,<br />

with a glass shield offering rain and wind<br />

protection and providing additional free<br />

space for the upper storeys. Many apartments<br />

are oriented towards three sides:<br />

the east, west, and north. To keep the<br />

noise levels within manageable limits,<br />

kitchens and bathrooms face the road,<br />

with living rooms and bedrooms opening<br />

out to the rear side via loggias. <strong>GWG</strong><br />

<strong>München</strong> plans to commence construction<br />

in late 2010/early 2011.<br />
