Kindergarten Formanská

The proposed development is row-based, pavilion-like. This solution creates a spatial impact corresponding to the character of the site and integrates with the existing family homes. The pavilions are two stories tall and are oriented with their shorter side towards the street. They are predominantly connected by a single-story retreating mass. The shape of the building creates an atrium that opens towards the interior and partially closes off from the surrounding environment, providing protection against the sun and noise. The shaping of the overall volumes and subsequently the layout is based on two directions of rotation. These rotations are the fundamental compositional principle of the design. The pavilions are punctuated from the outside by niches that allow the exterior greenery to be symbolically brought into the interior. The atrium with greenery and terrace brings this element in from the other side.

The division of the house into two pavilions and a single-story base fully corresponds to the layout design. The pavilions house classrooms with supporting facilities. On the ground floor, the entire operation of the kitchen with its facilities and the employees' supporting spaces is located in the perpendicular base. This base also accommodates the main and rear entrance connecting to a shared hallway with the staircase. This hallway interlaces with a multipurpose hall and the dining room. Together, these spaces create a community area, a meeting place for all children, parents, teachers, etc.

The pavilions are clad in wooden slats with spaced gaps. The slats on the façades facing the surroundings partially run over the window openings, creating shading and visually protecting the building. The connecting mass between the pavilions is made of plaster. The windows are aluminum with a natural finish. Supplementary steel structures are hot-dip galvanized.
