history
From 1925 to 1927, the twin houses were built on Schwachhauser Ring in the home style of the 1920s according to plans by Alfred Runge and Eduard Scotland . The clinker-clad, two-storey buildings with a hipped roof , the round bay windows and the ornaments are typical representatives of the Heimatschutz movement in Bremen, a movement that was strongly represented by Scotland with the catchwords: "Struggle for domestic architecture" or "Lower Saxon-English intimacy" . The movement was also under the influence of Hermann Muthesius , co-founder of the Deutscher Werkbund and its 1904/05 booklet: The English House. Development, conditions, facility, structure, facility and interior . Scotland and Runge's most famous buildings from this period are on Böttcherstraße in Bremen ( House of the Seven Lazy , St. Petrus House and House of the Glockenspiel ). The neighboring houses up to No. 18 also correspond to this style
Today (2014) service providers can also be found in the residential buildings.
