The Directorate of the Public Transport Company of the City of Brno

The city building with vertical segmentation is located in a gap between structures from the turn of this century. The object has an exposed rounded corner with a spatially designed (gallery spanning two floors) entrance hall with a representative centrally located staircase.
The street facade is designed as a calm, regularly segmented window opening surface. The fully glazed ground floor is regularly treated with load-bearing columns across its height. The last floor of the building recedes, creating a terrace towards the street, topped by a distinct cornice. Towards the garden of St. Ursula's Convent, the windows in the facade are kept to a minimum.
The design of the new building corresponds to the scale of the surrounding houses. The external expression conveys the function and purpose of the object as well as the era of its creation. The specific artistic and color solution and segmentation of facades, roof shape, and choice of materials are traditional and characteristic of urban architecture - sandwich facade cladding, stucco plaster, basement - natural stone cladding - travertine, window fillings - metal frames, clear glass, aluminum windows with stainless steel casings, exterior railings made of safety glass, exterior window blinds - Screen type, roof covering - sheet metal.
