architecture
The three-storey plastered building is formed by three unequal axes . Symmetrical façade structure with emphasis on the respective external axis by means of a triple-broken bay window and an acute-angled dwelling . The horizontal division and structuring is taken care of by a floor and protruding eaves and a strong joint cut on the ground floor.
The building is accessed through the entrance niche cut deep in the right axis with a richly crowned skylight . All window openings are designed as right or vertical rectangles of different sizes and with different details. The four ground floor windows lined up in a rhythmic arrangement are cut deep into the wall surface and set off by a simple frame. Geometric decorative elements in the parapet areas .
The arrangement of the windows on the first floor is symmetrical. The wall surfaces of the identically formulated bay windows each open a two-part rectangular window on the front and a narrow, lower-sized vertical rectangle on the side. Here, too, the parapets are emphasized by means of geometric decorative shapes. The central axis is determined by two vertical rectangular windows framed by a three-part frame (rough plaster) that extends over the entire height of the storey. On the generously slated second floor - a formal design element that the architect also preferred to use in other objects - one twin window in each of the gable surfaces and two further oblong window openings in the center axially . All windows are framed by an identical, narrow plaster frame. In each of the upper gables there is a lying ox-eye ; the surface of the gable roof breaks through a dormer with a pointed triangular gable in the middle .
