OLŠANSKÁ HOUSING

Annotation

Olšanská - the street originally built as a backbone road from the Žižkov freight station is now an unpleasant street with heavy traffic and no amenities. I propose four houses converging towards St Roch's Church to create a square with a café, playground and flower shop. From the square there is a passage directly to the Olšanské cemetery. The whole area is designed as a public space - on the ground floors of the houses there are workshops, retail and office spaces. The apartments in the long sections are designed as simple "garage" spaces. The long sections have bridges leading out of them and connecting smaller houses to them.
