HOUSE ON THE EDGE – Valašské Meziříčí, Sokolská Street

Site lies on the border of two different worlds, in every sense. On the south side panel covers housing, which is dominated by residential building with eight floors. The whole estate has a classic "prefabricated" character - high impersonal monoblocks, including the free space that is used mainly for parking to local residents. The settlement grew in the 60 Valasske Mezirici The last century in places the original buildings. At least the historic center, which in this case is that the next world, with more or less of this "renewal" withstood and stayed here preserved the original area.

The rest of the building facade is characterized by a simple "dotted with windows having movable shading panels. These are used primarily for shade or sun lamps at night, or simply need to be close to the outside world. One of the requirements of the proposal was to retain the existing 80 parking places on the current car park and parking add them to the object itself. The problem is solved by means of underground garage accessible from the south side of the building
