Project idea

Park. Park of the Father of Modern Education. City park. Park full of greenery.

Project description

Directional axes confirm the flow of energy through the park. Nevertheless, they respect and strengthen surrounding greenery. They float around it. They provide enough space for it. In the transverse direction, the park is naturally divided into three zones - entrance, active one and quiet one.The airiness and clarity of the park intensifies the sense of safety - elimination of jeopardy. The emerging space supports dominance of trees as well as vistas of the city landmarks. A place for calm and active rest in contact with nature set in the historical context of the city. New readable layer. Yet respecting existing structures.

1st prize in architectural competition. Actual phase (July 2019) - project documentation.
