system 01
System 01 “NEW TOR” comes with three block variations composed with
sev-en types of apartmsev-ents. Due to small number of apartmsev-ents around a
stair-case it is the most intimate setup. Two bigger apartments have windows on both
sides and the smaller one between them is not too deep, allowing for
north-south orientation. The system favours medium and bigger apartments and it
is the only one with generous loggias. Designed for 4 to 6 floors maximum.

System 02 “SOHO TOWER” comes with two block variations depending on if the
staircase is surrounded by five or six apartments. It’s a typology imagined for higher
buildings – up to 10 floors – with two elevators in the central core and possibly
gen-erous balconies. It introduces compact small and medium sized apartments, but also
bigger ones with large corner windows enriching its shared spaces – the living room,
dining area and the kitchen.

system 03
System 03 “CORRIDOR BLOCK” has only one block variation and just as much as the
tower system favours smaller and medium sized apartments. It may seem less
spa-tially efficient due to the long corridor that runs in the middle, but on the other hand
it is the most flexible system on a volume scale. Particular apartments could be easily
taken out in order to create shared spaces, common terraces etc., it is also possible to
add more apartments, create corner blocks or play with its form in some other way.

Old factories were given new names and functions - cafes, design studios, alternative theater and cinema, but also real estate offices.
Industrial area of Kamionek underwent revitalisation and was given a brand new name - Soho Factory. View from Mińska Street. Northern part of my site is completely flat with a great amount of trees. Siemens factory can be seen in the background.
Kamion Cross plan by WWAA. The studio proposed a rich offer of apartment types, with a majority of medium sized ones (45-60 m2).
Rebel One plan by WWAA. Housing tower with central staircase surrounded by four apartments with windows facing two sides. Rebel One: The first housing tower built in the area, awarded many architectural prizes for interesting brick details. Designed by WWAA.
“In a heart of big city. Close to nature. The central part of SOHO by YAREAL will be the linear park decorated with varied greenery.” SOHO by Yareal commercial from their website - Soho as a creative, hipster spot on Warsaw map. “Your place, your world”.
