Haus Klinker

Martin Roth

Haus Klinker is being built at Schörlistrasse 1 in Zurich-Schwamendingen, directly beside the new Überlandpark. Designed by Duplex Architekten, the building combines 23 atelier apartments, studios and maisonettes with flexible additional rooms and shared amenities. Reused bricks, a serial structural system and a direct bridge to the park give the house its distinctive identity.

The marketing needed to communicate not only the architecture, but also the range of possible ways to live and work here. Across several phases, Nightnurse developed and refined two exterior visualizations and five interior images with distinct colour, furnishing and everyday-life scenarios. The coherent visual world presents the building as both an urban address and an adaptable place to live, helping prospective residents compare the different apartment types and imagine their own use of the spaces.

The view from Schörlistrasse presents the building as an urban counterpart defined by large atelier windows, a facade of reused brick and distinctive external staircases.

Living and Working by the Park

The two exterior visualizations anchor the elongated building between Schörlistrasse and Überlandpark. The rhythm of the serial bays, reused brick and large openings translates the character of an industrial building into a new residential address.

Street-level and elevated park views reveal different qualities of the location: ateliers form an interface with the neighbourhood below, while the apartments above face the greenery and connect directly to the new public space.

More Than One Way to Live

The interior series translates the flexible structural framework into different ways of living. Raw concrete ceilings and exposed beams form the consistent architectural base, while colour concepts, furnishings and personal details give each apartment type its own identity.

Rooms with Their Own Character

The living area, bedroom, studio, attic kitchen and children’s room deliberately avoid presenting a standardized ideal apartment. Instead, they show how living, working and retreat can be combined individually within the same building.
