BRIDGES, EMBASSY OF THE CZECH REPUBLIC IN ETHIOPIA
Idea projektu
THE HORIZONTAL CUBIC VOLUMES THREE OF THEM LYING ON THE GROUND AND SUPPORTING ANOTHER THREE WHICH REST ON THEIR TOPS. THE BOTTOM AND UPPER ONES INTERSECT AT THE RIGHT ANGLE TO EACH OTHER BUT AT THE SAME TIME THEY ARE PLACED AT THE DIFFERENT ELEVATIONS. ONE MORE VOLUME STANDS SEPARATELY WITH IT S APPARENT VERTICAL NATURE SHOWING THE CONTRAST TO THE HORIZONTALLY STRETCHED BODIES, THE GRID MADE UP BY THE VOLUMES CREATE HIDDEN AND SECURED FROM THE OUTSIDE SPACES- GARDENS AND COURTYARDS. THE FLOATING CANTILEVERS CLEARLY INDICATE PRINCIPAL ENTRANCES FOR PUBLIC USE. THE DECORATION AND FORMS ARE SIMPLE TO COMPLY WITH THE SURROUNDING SIMPLIFIED AND DENSE CONSTRUCTION. MOREOVER THE FENCE ALMOST SHUTS THE GROUND LEVEL FROM THE OUTSIDE LOOK. HOWEVER THE UPPER VOLUMES ARE DECORATED WITH THE SET OF THE SMALL ROUND WINDOWS ON THEIR SOUTHERN WALL TO FILTER THE SUN LIGHT WHILE THE FAÇADE CLADDING ITSELF IS MADE OF THE PINK COPPER PANELS TO IMITATE THE COLOR OF THE AFRICAN SAVANNA. AS A RESULT THE ELEVATED VOLUMES ENABLE THE FACADES TO BE SEEN FROM A DISTANCE AND SEND THEIR MESSAGES THROUGH THE LOW RISE URBAN ENVIRONMENT.
