Idea projektu

The idea of the project was to create a new urbanism on the plot. There are two paths around which the designed objects are situated. On the eastern side of the plot, a main entrance was created and a main exit is situatedon the other side. From the south, an arrival for the residents was created. The main goal was to create a private and representative garden that would be separated from the access road and created an „oasis“ of peace and relaxation.
The next idea was to create a stained glass windows in representative parts of buildings because it is a symbol of the Czech Republic.

Popis projektu

The land was divided into two parts, both fenced. On one part there is an object for local forces and on the other there are four separate objects - embassy, residence, consular and visa object, accessible directly from the street and apartment building for employees. An access road was created in the northern part of the plot and the main buildings are deployed along it. These buildings will clear the rest of the plot from an access road and create representative and private garden. A tennis and volleyball court, a swimming pool, a tukul and a children's playground were created in the garden. Then there is an object in the garden where garden equipment is stored.
