The space
The transformation of the water tower into an apartment was mainly designed for the careful handling of the existing building and represents a minimal intervention in the existing building. The more than 100-year history of the water tower remains noticeable. Particularly important are the round shape and the materiality, which remains noticeable in all rooms. This results in an open living landscape that does not divide the tower into small rooms, but plays with open levels and the round shape.
On the ground floor is the large cozy kitchen-living room. The space is spanned by a brick dome. The old iron staircase leads you to the sleeping levels above with bathrooms. The tower has a total of two bathrooms with shower, toilet and sink and an additional toilet with sink.
Above this is the tower history room, which is located directly under the steel dome of the water tank.
Upstairs in the former water tank itself is now the living room. A large window was cut into the riveted tank wall, which reveals the view over the wildlife park. In this extraordinary room, there is another sleeping option for 2 people.
The water tower is crowned by the roof terrace, over which the steel skeleton of the former roof extends.
