A HOUSE WITH AN ATRIUM

an apartment building

4

,,A house with an atrium'' is an apartment building located in the center of the Czech town Velké Meziříčí, between the historic urban development and a large park. It is the outermost building in the block, on the site of which there was a wasteland used as a parking lot. In addition to the need to transform the empty non-functional area in the city center, there was a need for additional housing for the town's residents.

concept sketches

The main part of the concept is the atrium, around which there are spaces with access through long corridors. Directly above the atrium, there is a large skylight, which is the main source of lighting for the interior. It strengthens the atrium and creates a more defined vertical space. The atrium - an ,,outdoor'' space with light, plants and trees flows through the building. The seating islands have a similar irregular shape to the parcel and are located in the middle of the atrium forming a chill zone.

CATHOLIC CULTURAL CENTER

a safe place for everyone

16

18

Catholic Cultural Center is intended for the public who have an interest in different areas of Catholic Christianity and wish to meet like-minded people for communication. The building consists of several parts: a church, a gallery full of Catholic art and a venue for lectures and meetings, a library with archives and the opportunity to study religion, a dormitory consisting of 10 rooms for travelling groups of nuns and monks, and a refectory where the above can have breakfast, lunch and dinner. When creating a project with such a special theme, I paid extra attention to the atmosphere of the building, which was mostly made through shape, color and minimalistic design. But the main idea is that such a cultural center is open to all interested, regardless of their gender, nationality or skin color.
