LAYOUT1

This residential building is located in a historically rich district of Riga. Designed with families in mind, the complex includes a shared playground and offers a thoughtful, community-oriented living environment.

Inspired by the surrounding industrial brick architecture, the new building’s façade is clad in clinker brick tiles - a material that ties the structure back to the area's heritage. Subtle brick patterns run across the elevations: vertical tile bands between floors and around the windows break up the massing and introduce fine detailing.

Where the building meets its neighbour on Sparģeļu Street, a decorative cornice line continues the rhythm of the adjacent structure, blending historic context with a contemporary architectural language.
