SONNENHOF

Sonnenhof designedby J. MAYER H. Architects consists of four new buildings with office andresidential spaces. Located on a consolidated number of smaller lots in thehistorical center of Jena, Germany, the separate structures allow for freeaccess through the grounds. Their placement on the outer edges of the plotdefines a small-scale outdoor space congruent with the medieval city structure.Its outdoor facilities continue the building’s overall design concept past theedges of the lot. The planned incorporation of commerce, residence, and officeenables a flexible pattern of use that also integrates itself conceptually intothe surroundings.
