Appreciation towards Ken Architekten for providing the following description:

该项目颠覆了联排住宅的传统概念。16个公寓单元融合在一起，如同一座线条分明的岛屿。住宅依托不同倾斜角的坡地地形而建，其外形与项目用地的轮廓十分契合。材料和色彩的运用、简洁而不花哨的外观以及大体量的特点让建筑整体看起来宛如Bruggerberg山固有的一部分。中央阶梯的东西两侧分别是八座结构简单的公寓（含4.5-至5.5间房）。每间公寓的前立面均设有巨大的落地窗。通过轻质隔断墙可以根据需要自主地隔出房间区域。地面层的车库同时也是阻隔主街道噪音的隔音屏风。两侧的栏杆式墙体和后面的阶梯地形带来了安静而私密的居住空间和室外空间。

The building defies the conventional idea of what a terraced house should look like. The 16 condominium apartments are fused like islands into an overall form with clearly defined edges. The shape clings to the contours of the existing terrain, reacting to the course of the slope with differentiated oblique angles. With its choice of materials, colouration, lack of detail and large scale, the volume seems to be part of the Bruggerberg hill. Eight simply structured 4.5- to 5.5-room apartments are arranged along the east and west sides of a central stairway. The main floor of each flat has floor-to-ceiling windows across its entire breadth, facing onto a terrace. Rooms can optionally be separated off with lightweight partition walls. The garage on the ground floor serves as a noise barrier toward the busy main street. On the other floors, stout balustrades and the closing off of the terraces at the sides create quiet, private living areas and outdoor spaces.
