The layout of the design is "reversed." The bedrooms are located on the ground floor while the communal spaces are on the first floor. The building's concept aims for ecological preservation, low maintenance costs, and high durability in construction, materials, and technology. Heating will be generated through geothermal energy and heat pumps, distributed via underfloor heating. The same system will provide cooling in summer. External sun protection will help prevent overheating in summer. Photovoltaic panels for electricity generation and solar panels for hot water preparation will be installed on the roof of the second floor.
The above-ground exterior walls will be constructed from 36.5 cm insulation bricks and a perforated veil with decorative brickwork will be drawn in front of them, partly covering the openings of the building envelope. The interior walls will also be made of perforated bricks. Prestressed concrete hollow-core slabs will span between the cores and the exterior walls, forming the floors and the flat roof. The roof is designed as a single-shell, non-ventilated flat roof with external insulation and panel covering.
The floor plan is organised by two cores that accommodate all subsidiary functions, distribution of building technology, and utility rooms.
