On the edge of the city centre of Pécs and the slopes of Mecsek, situated in the southwestern part of Hungary, the apartment house with its compact, flat-roofed mass wants to fit into the rather mixed, heterogeneous environment of Gebauer Ernő street. In Gebauer Ernő street, the family houses and the flat-roofed, modernist apartment houses built in the second part of the 20th century, the latter ones with fine details, clinker brick inserts, concrete balconies, natural stone plinths can be observed, which are the evidence of quality built environment. The building density on the street is changing, family houses are slowly being displaced by apartment houses, several newly built blocks have appeared on the street in the recent years. The relatively small scale apartment house with 4 apartments and an indoor parking garage has been designed to represent and retell the quality of the modernist buildings of the last century in its exterior and interior spaces, and facade details.
