The architects use the reflective glass surface of the facade "as a kind of a Switching Surface between the structure and the living character of the metropolitan vertical lofts, on the one hand, and the almost village-like atmosphere of the area on which the Apartment House Grada?ka is located." The apartment house has 12 units in it. (Source: Sadar + Vuga Arhitekti [firm website]; http://www.sadarvuga.com)
