Project description
heARTensity student housing quarter, located in the centre of Warsaw, got inspiration from Warsaw old town. The main keywords that reflect the project are the layout of building blocks and the construction of volumes and density. The project aims to create calm but engaging living environment inside the block, which would provide a change from the fast-paced city life, while providing opportunities for students to spend time together. This is heARTensity – home and heart for students in Warsaw.
