Elementary School Vřesovice / Public Atelier + Fuuze

The final half was the unique gymnasium adjoining to the baroque constructing, which is to be transformed into a contemporary fitness center and two membership rooms. At current, the venture is ready for a subsidy. The want for the venture, or the necessity for reconstruction, arose on account of a requirement to develop the capability of the college capability, to avoid wasting the quickly decaying roof trusses of the Baroque complicated and rectify the unsatisfactory state of its internal courtyard. The entire complicated was constructed regularly, its numerous elements serving totally different functions. They have been preserved in several situations. Similarly, its reconstruction proceeds regularly, in response to the wants of the municipality, its monetary assets, and the situation of the person elements of the complicated. This variety, each operational and technical, has due to this fact logically grow to be the principle place to begin of the reconstruction venture.

The venture proposal emphasised the interconnection of particular person elements in order that their historic worth as a posh ought to be preserved and in order that the customers of the college and the daycare heart ought to really feel comfy and free to make use of all its elements. Both newly applied and unique historic parts are intertwined, however they’re clearly distinguishable from each other. The historic elements are united by a basic plaster façade, a purple roof of plain tiles, and copper plumbing parts. On the opposite hand, the straightforward cubic form, clean floor, and distinctive colours characterize the brand new elements. Passages and interconnections of the buildings which had been separated up to now are accentuated. It brings a playfulness to the complicated not solely with its colours but in addition with new prospects of operation and motion. Children are free to decide on which entry to high school and which colour they’ll use.

Thanks to that, the brand new school rooms have a spacious terrace with a grass space, from the place it’s attainable to take pleasure in classes with a view of the Church of St. Peter and Paul.

Although it’s a constructing with the standing of a nationwide cultural monument, a very trendy, assured in addition to delicate, architectural strategy was chosen for the reconstruction. As far because the wants of the college are involved, the historic constructing had a number of limitations, so new architectural parts not solely improved the situations for the kids and lecturers but in addition remodeled their time spent in school into an expertise of the area. The second of playfulness and free motion has grow to be essential in school. What is key can be the free area the place youngsters can transfer – the area the place they make their very own guidelines with a view to chill out from order and dictates.
