Most probably one of the very best efforts of the architect, this apartment block has notable Rondocubist elements. Based on traditional historical principles, its composition forms the basis for the invocation of dynamic portals, conical capitals, round targets and Constructivist balconies. Adding to the aesthetic impression of the moving surfaces of Šilinger’s facade is the rich colour scheme. Equally characteristic for the architect’s work of this era is the massive mansard roof.
