Housing

De Postkoets (the mail-coach) consists of four discrete masses set above an underground parking lot. Each mass comprises a two-storey shop below three levels of housing: a pair of two-storey units side by side and a small flat in the roof. Units in each mass are accessed by a central stairhall reached from a small 'street' on the first floor.
