Tartu Rebase Street

Luxury apartment accommodations have reached another pinnacle in the domain of modern architecture with an endeavour by Atelier Thomas Pucher and Bramberger Architects in the city of Tartu, Estonia.
This groundbreaking conception is a concoction of the economical aspects of low-cost apartment living and the benefits of single residential homes.
These luxurious Villas or Penthouses are placed one on top of the other in a highly photogenic and strategic manner, to offer an immeasurable panorama, personal outdoor spaces and large living areas -all in utmost privacy. Moreover, the environmental benefits granted by reduced overall impacts on the environment due to the apartment housing backbone also ensure lower maintenance and building costs.
The project encompasses organized space that is apportioned in two distinct rings according to their functions, either ‘living’ or ‘service’ areas. The inner ring, or service ring, coordinates the service functions such as wardrobes, entrances, bathrooms and sauna rooms -also acting as a noise barriers to the lobby. The exterior ring, or living areas ring, yields private outdoor spaces with views and vast sunlight exposure. Moreover, its flexible floor plan allows residents to personalize their walls and interiors to their liking with ease.
