Two numerals in the name of this project represent the street address – 14, plus the number of buildings – 3. All three of them have one facade covered with copper panels while the rest three facades of each unit are faced with brick. Copper panels from Aurubis were embossed at German factory with special relief design. It makes the panelled facade look like covered with expensive and scratchy fabric. Panels reflect differently depending of their plane position, horizontal or vertical. Second material, brick, is also special: It is small-sized and multi-shaded as in Venice of XIII century.
