the old swimming pool, which was built in the style of the new building with borrowings from classicism in the middle of the slope to compensate for the difference in level, was remodelled into a residential complex after it had been empty for some time, which once again added elements of brutalism to it. but it also added many organic elements such as wood and planting, both inside and out.

das alte schwimmbad das im stil des neuen bauens, mit anleihen des klassizismus,mitten in den hang errichtet wurde um den niveauunterschied auszugleichen, wurde nachdem es länger leerstand zu einem wohnkomplex umgestaltet, der ihm noch einmal elemente des brutalismus hinzufügte. Aber auch viele organische elemente, wie holz und bepflanzungen, innen wie aussen und es strukturell öffnete.
