 Attic extension Frankfurt

The building is located in Frankfurt’s Westend district. The lower part of the apartment was renovated and expanded by the attic. A gallery opening for the internal staircase forms the connection between the upstairs and downstairs areas. This creates interesting views between the kitchen, dining area, and living room, visually extending the apartment. The large window front in the attic as well as a new loggia let a lot of light inside and open up the view of Frankfurt’s skyline.

 House Gigler

The building is based on a clear design concept. The client, an enthusiastic mountain climber, wanted the broadest possible view of the Wendelstein mountain across from the building. Due to the impossibility of building on the upstream fields, the building will always offer an impressive view of the mountain chain from nearly all rooms. The back of the building is mainly closed off, only necessary windows perforate the facade.

The timber frame construction was covered by split larch shingles on the outside. The garage pushes into the main house as a concrete square. The entire southwest side is designed as a sliding glass facade. The living room is extended into the exterior area through the large, frameless sliding elements.

 House Jungnickel

The concept reflects the heterogeneous, urban environment. The different roof orientations of the surrounding buildings are combined in a sculptural volume. Large facade openings on the ground floor underline the orientations of both house blocks southwards and westwards. The top floor programmatically divides the house into a private and an office area, connected via a bridge across the “light trench”.

 House Holtmann

The development of the existing building from 1960 in Cologne’s city center is based on the “house on house” concept. The new construction is placed on the property as a confident, contrasting element. The design of the facade – building plastered, expansion of sheet metal cladding – strengthens this impression. The added volume is irregularly perforated by large-scale window cuts and terraces. Another important aspect of the design is the view of the Cologne Cathedral. A large-scale window was integrated facing the street on the fourth floor, offering a wide view of the towers of the Cologne Cathedral and the urban environment. In the attic above this, a generous terrace was included, also allowing an impressive view of the city. This principle of openings is repeated on the courtyard-facing side. In this case with a view of the quiet inner courtyard.

 House Knoll

CBA designed the extension of a detached house in Munich Grünwald for a young, local family. The already existing addition to the building is incorporated in its basic structure and extended southwards. A new flat roof replaces the gable roof and provides a clear contrast to the structure. This is enhanced by the dark facade cladding. The addition is initially intended as an independent rental living unit, but will later be connected to the areas of the main house.

 House Damm

The expansion of a building was commissioned as part of the renovation of the property of a detached villa in Grünwald. This envisages an additional dining room with a kitchen on the top floor as well as a new en-suite bedroom on the ground floor. Two parties should be able to live separately in the building after completion of the building measures, divided into ground and top floor. The cubic form of the addition stands in conscious contrast to the 1960’s architectural language of the villa. A glass connecting corridor on both floors represents the necessary break between old and new.
