For many
people, there is an unfortunate stigma attached to social housing. Fortunately,
some countries have realized that one of the best ways to combat this stigma is
through good design, leading to some striking and unusual social housing blocks
such as The Tetris Apartments located in Ljubljana, Slovenia.
The Tetris has 650
apartments of different sizes from 30m2 studio flats up to 3 room apartment of 70m2. The
given urban plot of the building was 4 floors high, 58 meters long and 15 in
width.
Each apartment has view towards its own
balcony, sometimes there is also a glazed loggia. On this way intimacy is
created and there will be no direct views from ones apartment directly to the
others in the opposite block.
The complex
was made of economic but quality materials such as wooden oak floors, granite
tiled bathrooms and have large windows with external metal blinds. The concept
of structure is made in a way, that floor plans are flexible, since only
structural walls are those, that separate apartment shell from the rest of the
building.
