GENIUS LOCI AND THE NEW URBAN STRUCTURE

Idea projektu

The aim of this diploma project is to design new urban structure regarding current living standards including public spaces.

Popis projektu

In close proximity of the historic centre of Trebíč, new residential blocks with additional purposes will be designed and the bus station will be adapted to current needs. Public spaces will be adjusted to focus primarily on people rather than cars. The urban design is based on the historical context of this site by following the original historical structure of the Stařečka buildings. The new blocks use a system of platforms which deals with the difference in terrain and enable placing parking and commercial space as part of the block. The platform also creates private closed courtyard for the inhabitants of the block. The space of the bus station is moved to the ground floor of one of the newly created blocks and its capacity is adjusted to the current needs. The street areas will be supplemented by greenery. Komenského square regain the character of a square instead of just a parking lot, it is moved and adapted to a pleasant public space for people with some public features. The Stařečský stream originally used to flow through this area, but nowadays is piped. The design restores it, brings it back to the ground and reinvolves it into the life of the city. The new Komenského square should not overshadow the existing main and representative Karlovo square in the city centre, but rather work as a local public space for residents to meet-and-greet. In the Polanka locality is newly designed a residential structure formed by blocks as well respecting surrounding buildings. The riverside or the river Jihlava is more implemented into the life of the city, there are riverbank steps and small terraces by the park of Polanka and on the other bank of the river that allows people to come closer to the river.
