One of the special features of courtyard architecture is that a building can present itself very differently depending on whether the viewer is a resident or a casual observer.
This is the case with MAX HÖFE: On the street side, its facade is designed to be deliberately unobtrusive and to blend in harmoniously with the existing row of buildings. If you take the time to examine this side of the building sculpture, you will discover details that indeed differentiate MAX HÖFE from its neighbors, such as the dynamically staggered floors with protruding bay windows. The subtle cornices. The French balconies. The floor-length dormer windows.
