Gerber Architekten gaben nach Abriss einiger älteren Häuser einem Block mit 123 Wohnungen den typischen „Hamburg Style“. Eine Einheit mit Geschäften im Erdgeschoss erinnert an Karl R. Schneider´s praktischen Wohnbauten.

Es geht also noch! Man kann modernen Wohnbau mit der Geschichte der Stadt verbinden. Gratulation an die Architekten!

Journey to the twenties
In 2022, a building was erected in Hamburg-Stellingen, which in its form could also have been built 100 years ago. The typical Hamburg clinker as a facade, the balconies (which are not) in the swing of the new building (Jarrestadt, Dulsberg) of the city on the Elbe.
Gerber Architects gave the typical „Hamburg Style“ to a block of 123 apartments after demolishing some older houses. A unit with stores on the first floor is reminiscent of Karl R. Schneider’s practical housing
So it still works! You can combine modern housing with the history of the city. Congratulations to the architects!

The Burchardhof
The architects Max Bach and Fritz Wischer created the building on today’s Steinstraße in 1930. It is a fine example of the „New Building“ of that time: more functionalism, less representative elements and a lot of light in the building. It has been a listed building since 1999 and was completely gutted and modernized from 2010 to 2012. The general planner for the refurbishment was AGN Ibbenbüren.
