The design proposal for the redevelopment of the quayside at Mainz customs port combines a myriad of requirements in one highly distinctively shaped building. DOXX is not simply a residential building with a portion devoted to commercial use. It will act as a pivotal project in remodelling this custom harbour area into an attractive and lively neighbourhood. The distinct shape of the building and the decision to raise all residential accommodation to the upper floor levels is central to this concept.
