Harvestehuder Weg 25, a lakeside property in Hamburg, offers a grand opportunity to create exclusive residential space due to the unique location in the immediate vicinity of the outer Alster Lake. The goal of the draft was to gingerly fit the new building ensemble into the surrounding housing environment while simultaneously making the most of the qualities offered by the sloping site for all the apartments being built. Borrowing from the existing urban development structure on this street dotted with mansions, consulates and historic homes, two individual villas are situated directly lakeside, to the rear a block of apartments along Alfred-Beit-Weg. The visual permeability of the frontal development enables a multitude of sightlines to the lake. As a result, the neighbouring park adjoining the Alster and the relationship to the lake itself become an integrative element of the property as a whole. In terms of urban planning, the block of apartments facing west is oriented to the terraced housing on Pöseldorfer Weg, a street adjoining to the south, and Magdalenenstrasse, a parallel residential street.
