Simple and dense
At the border between the commercial areas and residential quarters of the market town of Frastanz, the restrained volume marks the intersection of two heavily frequented main traffic arteries.
The customers of the regional local supplier enter the two-storey sales hall from the car park via a covered vestibule and the comfortably designed bistro area, which opens up to the evening sun. In the spirit of urban densification, the planners designed ten residential studios on the upper floor.
These are accessed through a sound-absorbing arcade on the street side and are oriented towards the south via generously dimensioned loggias. The entire complex does not use any fossil fuels; for example, the heating of the supermarket is provided exclusively by heat recovery from the cooling system.
