Revitalization of the URAN Administration Building in Liberec

Revitalization of the URAN Administration Building in Liberec 2019

The proposal for the renovation of the perimeter cladding of the URAN administration building follows in principle on its original solution. It does not change the small scale of the composite parts of the cladding, it maintains the same ratio between the glazed and solid parts of the facade, it keeps the same proportions of windows and a significant horizontal division of the facade. The design also follows the original tectonic composition system. However, thanks to a different facade cladding material, the overall impression created by the house changes significantly.

The facade is lined with galvanized sheet metal. The surface of the facade is divided by the shadows of cornices, by windows, but also by individual pieces of sheet metal, joints between them, the grid of anchorages. The surface of the galvanized parts flashes in the light, the reflections differ in each plate. The house reflects and changes the changing light of the surroundings.

At the same time, the facade solution works with different depths of detail corresponding to the distances from which the building can be seen. Significant horizontal division and URAN inscriptions are visible at a distant view when arriving from the city center on the street 1. máje, when passing the highway from Prague and Zittau. Details of the pillar cladding, the canopy above the entrance and the individual torx heads of the sheet metal mounting bolts are visible at the entrance to the vestibule.

The presented facade solution also raises questions that the current solution has overlooked. Among them, the emphasis on the entrance to the building and the peculiarity of creating a unique building from an indifferent 1970s office building. A building, which reacts to the specific situation.

Construction of the Andromeda apartment complex

Construction of the Andromeda apartment complex 2019

This is a design of the residential complex of 500 flats in the vicinity of the KVP housing estate on the outskirts of Košice. Three lines are inserted into the sloping terrain of the area. Two lines of houses and one line of the street between them. The curves of the lines respond to the shape and morphology of the plot. The line of towers is adjacent to the tall high-rise blocks, the line of lower apartment buildings is adjacent to the park in the valley. The park square is located in the southern part of the design. The whole development culminates towards Moskevská třída, where the height of the towers reaches the height of the neighboring buildings. The line of towers leaves the possibility of vistas, the line of low houses leaves the possibility of passage.

The layout of houses offers a high quality of a wide range of apartments, the vast majority of which are oriented in two directions and all have a loggia.

Education Center Rudolfinum

Education Center Rudolfinum 2019

Currently, the Education Center uses Suk Hall for its programs. However, this complicates the use of the hall, which is intended primarily for music production, places higher demands on the preparation of the hall and the transport of things needed for the events. At the same time, however, those who attend the program find themselves in the generous and beautiful premises of Rudolfinum. They enter the building by a representative staircase, meet in a large hall and spend most of their time in Suk Hall. This spatial and dramatic experience is an essential part of the participants experience.

We therefore consider it crucial to design the premises of the Education Center, so that they are able to compete as much as possible with the current experience that the participants of the program have.

We present a design that will make the Education Center an autonomous and distinctive part of the building with a clear operating scheme and spatial qualities that develop the dominant structure of the building.

Social and Health Complex Červený Kopec

Social and Health Complex Červený Kopec 2018

We design the social and health complex as one building, which has two pavilions on a common ground floor. The pavilions stand in the large garden that surrounds them. In the towers, there are individual wards on the upper floors, and all common facilities on the ground floor. The longitudinal parterre is on the one hand the representative entrance open to the public, on the other hand it is sunk into the slope as the technical background of the house. The proposed scheme is clear, it limits the amount and complexity of movement between the various parts of the building, offers quality space for clients, which becomes their home.

Town Hall of Lázně Bělohrad

Town Hall of Lázně Bělohrad 2018

A Town Hall is a declaration – a sign of self-government’s approach to citizens, to the town, to the economy.

Inspired by the current state, we propose a new town hall at the head of the elongated K. V. Raise square. The building, which is not adjacent to the surrounding buildings, which is offset from it, a building that looks lofty on all sides and closes each of the individual public spaces.

The town hall has three floors. On the ground floor are located two of the three halls, a registry office and an information center. On the other two floors are located the offices of the town hall. The city management is located on the first floor.
The ground floor spaces can be interconnected in various ways, according to the individual needs of every event, including the possibility of connecting the large hall with the small square next to the town hall. The upper floors are connected by an atrium.

The chosen scheme is neatly organized. It does not separate individual workplaces and promotes the impression of teamwork. At the same time, it offers appropriate spaces for citizens who are waiting, filling documents, preparing for meetings in the atrium area.
The aesthetics of the town hall are formed by a thin line between civically comprehensible friendliness and a dignified representation of the town’s power.
