Rotermann Quarter

The Rotermann quarter is a former industrial landscape of a valuable and unique milieu in the center of Tallinn. The new buildings have been designed not to form one large monotonous volume. This project offers four distinct apartment houses with different typologies. Pedestrian streets between the buildings end up in a square, elevated to the level of the first floor. The four buildings have been design so that apartments of similar size in all of the houses became sufficiently different. The views, the position of the flats on different floors, relationship with the surrounding space, configuration of the plan, different levels etc. all play an important role in giving as many different special opportunities in choosing an apartment in these houses as possible. The design of the adjacent town park derives mainly from the industrial image of the whole area. Also the architectural image of the buildings allude to the once flourished industrial area.
