Popis projektu

The Saint George Terrace is designed as a small free standing tower. The building mass is broken down into three similar volumes and arranged around a central spiral staircase there by giving each apartment on every floor its own house-like outline. The circular wall of the central shaft also appears in the layout of the apartments creating a dynamic convex, corridor space at the entrance and a static, concave back of the living room. The Saint George Terraces by Henri Chomette show how a variety of spatial situations can be created even with simple and standardized elements.
