The love I possess for prewar apartment houses is is truly a understatement as they were the definition of the perfect plan and also possessed a great deal of symmetry, positioning of elements like windows and openings as well as composition. This particular apartment building takes influence heavily from 19th and early 20th century Northern European and Scandinavian classical architecture in particular Copenhagen, Berlin, Stockholm, Munich, Düsseldorf, Oslo, Helsinki, Riga and Hamburg as well as various other cities. A lot of these apartments also had incredible amenities so does this building consisting of a pool, bar, spa, ballet studio, screening room, restaurant, gym, wine cellar, basketball court, music room, billiards and games room, reading room, crèche and rooms for cats and dogs. The building is composed of a simple square form split by a classical portico capped by a frieze board with light wells below the two side window bays. To the side is a area for storing bikes and where all the trash from the apartments goes. These apartments also use rugs by @ice-creamforbreakfast
