Six Unit Housing Project

In this project the main goal was to build cheap and fast, but still to offer a high level of quality on construction and spatial aspects.  Each house has its own south-facing garden and two car parks, one of which is covered.

Construction is based on Heklatherm's combined isolation and structural brick which ensures adequate thermal conductivity with 30cm monolithic walls.  The other major material is wood for the roof and floor timberwork, balconies and window frames.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

  

 

The selling price was around 550'000 CHF, which is particularly cheap with respect to common land prices and building costs in Geneva.  Usual prices are in the range of  700 to 900'000 CHF for a house of the same standing.
