Developed by LBBW Immobilien GmbH, the residential project has replaced the laboratory building in Stuttgart. It is designed based on some model apartments that provided the illustration concept for the project.

Quant 10, located in one of Stuttgart’s prime residential areas, was the first model apartment that was realized in 2008. Quant 1 is the new model released in 2009. Targeted at single women, the apartments display a more feminine design.

The apartment has a spacious feel to it despite its compact size. Clearly defined living areas, and its transparent and open design make it airy and spacious.

The inside boasts of a curved staircase, which forms the central hub of the apartment that opens to the two floors above. Other rooms of the house are grouped around the open space. The bedroom, bathroom and dressing room are clustered on the upper floor.

The bedroom is a private space with three open sides. The façade wall provides a view of the outside, while the wall opposite the bed opens to the dining room, which can be blocked with the aid of curtains when required.

An oval window enclosed within a Chesterfield-upholstered seating area, creates a boudoir effect and leads to the bathroom. A thick-pile, velour carpet, white upholstered leather curtains, and flower motifs define the upholstery of the bedroom, which is complemented by the off-white furniture.

The bathroom displays porcelain stoneware in horizontal stripes, with a mirrored whitewash bathroom cupboard stretching along the length of the room. With its mirrored doors and multiple illuminated compartments, it exudes a sense of abundance and offers generous storage.

The entrance to the apartment leads directly to the staircase and into the dining area. The ambiance is accentuated by three pendant luminaries hung from the ceiling. Curtains hung all the way down one side adorn the room.

The living and dining areas feature natural materials and colors like whitewashed parquet floor, which leads the open kitchen. The kitchen features green-varnished glass wall and solid surfaces.

To create a cozy atmosphere a tall pile of logs and an open fireplace with a concrete lip are included in the living area. Bold colors define the interiors of the lower floor, which can open up to the summer sun through the large windows on the upper floor.

Wilford Schupp was responsible for the exterior design of the residential building.
