The Chocolate House
Annotation
The Chocolate House is at the front of one of the three newly developed blocks in Opava at Horní náměstí. Working with it´s modest site, the house answers the question of how can a Chocolate House open to public look like. The building is horizontally seperated in two main areas, the manufacture and the visitors area. The visitors stand atop the manufacture and have the opportunity to watch the whole bean to bar process. The top floor offers them the possibility to even make their own dream chocolate. Separate manufacture floors are connected vertically by dumb waiter and a vertical chocolate processing line.
