Living on Hohentorsplatz / Hild und K
Briefly

The Hohentorsplatz project in Bremen is part of an initiative to rejuvenate the city center, particularly in the Neustadt area. Spearheaded by GEWOBA, the design by Hild und K introduces a distinctive eight-storey staggered residential building on a former car park site. The structure's hexagonal shape and striking design serve as a landmark, enhancing its urban context and relationship to surrounding buildings, particularly Bremen University. The project emphasizes open spaces and communal areas, drawing inspiration from Alvar Aalto's design philosophy to elevate the quality of subsidized housing.
The award-winning design by Hild und K implemented the underlying specifications in an unusual form - an eight-storey staggered structure, accentuating the urban space.
Open spaces at the edge of the hexagonal building form squares and further establish a relationship with the neighbouring surroundings and the attractive park.
