SPECIAL FEATURE
The Stephaniviertel - Formerly densely built up like the Schnoorviertel, after the destruction of the Second World War a colorful mixed quarter emerged, today characterized by Radio Bremen, the adult education center, the youth hostel and the Weser promenade.
Building an office is always a special challenge for architects. The 480 m² office adjoins a residential building with 19 units, both designed and realized by the Italiano team. The studio building also has a very special charm: it disappears into the slope. This is because the difference in height between the Faulenstrasse and Stephanikirchhof is over 4 meters.
Project:
New Attelierhaus building
Client:
GG Faulenstraße 108 mbH
Surface area:
510 m² GFA
Performance:
1-9 HOAI








SPECIALTY
The Stephaniviertel is the area between the Weser, Bürgermeister-Smidt-Straße and Wallanlagen. Formerly densely built-up like the Schnoorviertel, a colourfully mixed quarter emerged after the destruction of the Second World War, today characterized by Radio Bremen, the adult education centre, the youth hostel and the Weser promenade.
Building an office is always a special challenge for architects. This then becomes self-realization when it comes to their own office. Thorsten Italiano has now taken this step with the new building in the middle of the city center, directly adjacent to the Weser and the Wallanlagen. The 480 m² office is adjacent to a residential building with 19 units, both designed and realized by the Italiano team. After completion, the planning office and all its staff moved there. They are excited to see what the changes will bring. The idea of combining living and working in the Stephaniviertel, also known as the Faulenquartier, represents the basic idea of the project. For the planning office, this was an opportunity to plan according to their own vision and for their own needs in a special and historic location. For the company, the move to the west of the Mitte district is also additionally appealing as a step out of the Schwachhausen residential district and into the city center. The studio building also has a very special charm: it disappears into the hillside. This is because the difference in height of the site from Faulenstraße to Stephanikirchhof is over 4 meters.
