Bread-bin shaped hot-house

Idea projektu

I am a first-year Bachelor’s student specializing in the Reconstruction and Restoration of Architectural Heritage. My project focuses on a flower pavilion and café. All dimensions on the drawings are in millimeters.

Popis projektu

The core design concept is to create a pavilion imbued with elements of Art Nouveau, integrated within a carefully considered park landscape plan. This is achieved through the division of the pavilion into two distinct zones:

Firstly, the ‘Greenhouse Zone,’ which serves as the primary entrance and is constructed primarily of glass, creating a light and inviting atmosphere. Secondly, the ‘Transverse Zone’ encompasses the main café hall, restrooms, and service areas, including a rear access point designated for deliveries and stock management.

The pavilion fulfills a dual functional programme, accommodating both a café and a flower shop. The design aims to create a harmonious interplay between these two commercial activities within a cohesive architectural framework.

The pavilion’s design seamlessly integrates two distinct functions – a café and a flower shop – reflected in its facade concept: a fusion of a greenhouse aesthetic with a structured interior featuring an unconventional roof inspired by Parisian metro stations.

The façade’s defining characteristic is the harmonious blend of greenhouse-like transparency and solid architectural elements. Stained glass and intricate ornaments are incorporated into the windows, divided by prominent mullions and transoms. This fenestration detail is echoed in the main entrance door, albeit reimagined in the form of decorative wooden elements, and further integrated into the primary façade surfaces.

Metal columns, drawing inspiration from the same Parisian metro station aesthetic, provide structural support and contribute to the pavilion’s visual identity. The greenhouse section’s roof is constructed entirely of glass, maximizing natural light penetration. The unconventional roof design of the other section will utilize a smooth roofing material. The structural framework for both roof types and the entry feature is crafted from metal, encased within a timber frame for a contrasting visual texture.
