Cogels Osylei
Typical for this street with its eclectic architecture are the many style variations and the marked freedom of forms. We choose lend this project an imposing aura similar to those of the surrounding buildings yet with a contemporary design in which style and formal elements are incorporated , such as multi-layered construction of the façade, white stucco, plinth, round elements and tower references.
By its almost pretentious individually and design, its use of primary colours and above all the contrasting effect with its surroundings this building is meant to represent the 20th century and offer a counterbalance in this formally exuberant setting.
