Instead of demolition and large-scale reconstruction, a targeted intervention: foliage-colored corrugated metal on the facade of a nursing home, a perforated brick wall along the street, light pavilions under the plane trees. The block is not rebuilt but mended, keeping the trees, the pedestrian links and the familiar rhythm of life in the neighborhood.
Inside, the same principle of restraint: light enters through a skylight, and the staircase and display windows become part of the public space rather than a separate object.
