Romeo und Julia, Residential high-rise complex in Stuttgart, Germany

The Romeo und Julia complex features two towers with contrasting designs: Romeo rises 65 meters with 19 floors, while Julia shows a horseshoe shape.

Architects Hans Scharoun and Wilhelm Frank designed these residential buildings between 1955 and 1959 as part of Stuttgart's post-war reconstruction efforts.

The buildings represent organic architecture principles with their asymmetrical forms, curved lines, and a color scheme in ochre, green, red, blue, and violet.

The complex contains apartments ranging from 38 to 96 square meters, with shops at ground level and studio apartments with terraces on the top floors.

Hans Scharoun maintained a second residence in one of Romeo's four rooftop studio apartments, which offered views across Stuttgart.
