This housing for elderly people is probably one of the most published architecture projects of its times and also from Holland. Its very powerful image is the result of urban policy: the architects couldn't place all the 100 apartments in a linear building, because there was a height restriction. Thus the overhang volumes: all the apartments that couldn't fit into the linear volume where hang on the northern side, with a east-west orientation.
