This 18-unit row house stands on a long, narrow site with a 6-meter frontage and 33-meter depth, where a factory originally stood. A 2-meter wide "alley" is drawn in to match the scale of the surrounding area, and the units are arranged to surround it. A terrace is located at the end of the alley, and the entrance door is made of glass to create a view to the green road at the back. The exterior walls of the adjacent factory were painted at the same time to create a borrowed landscape.
