Apartment building Residence U Boroviček
The designed residential building with 23 apartments connects to the surrounding linear development of terraced houses that forms the southern and eastern part of the adjacent area.
The building has two above-ground floors and one underground floor with a garage. The mass of the house is oriented in an east-west direction, parallel to the terraced houses, and is located on a terrain slope, into which the underground floor is embedded. The southern part of the plot, with mature trees, slopes significantly towards the neighboring gardens, is newly terraced, and planted with low greenery. In the northern part of the plot, there is a site access road with entrances to the building and parking spaces; the adjoining area is park-like, planted with mature pines, and serves as a shared garden.
The mass concept is based on subdividing the mass of the house into smaller volumes and creating a smaller scale typical of terraced houses. The northern and southern facades consist of four blocks that intersect the volume of the building perpendicularly. These four volumes are plastically emphasized on the southern and northern sides by protruding frames. The top floor of the building is set back, creating spacious recessed roof terraces with a southern view.
The material solution of the house is designed in a combination of white smooth plaster and vertical brick cladding in a dark brown color. The railings of the balconies and terraces are made of black perforated sheet metal. The terraces are complemented by steel pergolas with larch board infill.
The project name refers to the street name U Boroviček, and there are also mature pines planted in the shared garden in front of the house. The pine motif is further reflected in the details of the house at the entrance and in the common areas.
The structural system of the house is designed in a combination of reinforced concrete and lime-sand masonry. The southern and northern facades feature balcony consoles in the form of ISO beams. The building envelope is exceptionally insulated and equipped with triple-glazed windows. The windows are typically fitted with external blinds. The heating of the apartments is hot water-based, with a gas boiler as the heat source. The hot water supply is supplemented by photovoltaic panels located on the roof of the house.
