Design and construction of a pharmacy.

This pharmacy is located in a commercial spot, a corner plot in the town centre. From an architectural point of view, a strong dynamic is required because of its commercial function, and because of the residential top level. Cut-out corners create terraces that emphasise its residential qualities. The terraces are oriented in such a way that its residents may enjoy the rays of the sun in the morning as well as in the evening. The house and pharmacy may be used as a whole or as two separate entities. The red stone façade in combination with the darker stones create a strong look.
