The teardrop-shaped plot is surrounded by streets, resulting in an island-like situation. The building responds to this with a free-standing, expressive appearance. The volume expands to the east, asserting its size and presence against the generous street space. The size and symbolic nature of the building establishes new urban relationships between the railway area and the residential area in the immediate vicinity. New forms of social housing in a small space form the principle of the design.
