Family House Slavkov 02

The main concept of the house, which is reflected in its placement and technical solution, is a clear geometric shape influenced by the shape of the plot and maximum connection of the interior with the exterior.

Urban Planning Solution
The parcel is located in the northern edge of the city, which continues into a cottage area. The slightly sloping plot on the western side adjoins the forest, is bordered on the north by a neighboring plot, and on the southeast side is delineated by a road that leads into Jiráskovy Street. The trapezoidal shape of the plot generated the basic geometric footprint of the house. It is designed on the basis of a right triangle, with the longest side oriented to the southeast, elevated above the road, while the shorter sides face into a garden predominantly comprising mature greenery of a park-like character.

Architectural Solution
The house is designed as a single-storey, detached building. The interior, freely flowing space is defined by two horizontal planes that define different terraces and loggias, which allow for maximum connection of the interior with the exterior. The layout consists of a 5-room house with comfortable facilities represented by two bathrooms, dressing rooms adjacent to each bedroom, a laundry room, and a spacious storage area accessible from both inside and outside. The living rooms are oriented to the southeast, overlooking the city's landmarks – the castle and the church.

Structural and Material Solution
The object is founded on foundation strips. The vertical load-bearing structures are made of ceramic blocks with a thickness of 450 mm, partitions from ceramic partition blocks with thicknesses of 100 mm and 150 mm. The ceiling structures are wooden beam constructions, and the lintels of the window openings are part of the reinforced concrete stiffening girders that also support the overhanging part of the roof covering the terraces. The roof is flat, sloped a minimum of 1%, with waterproofing layers weighted down with gravel.
The floors in the living rooms are wooden boards, while the areas with sanitary facilities have ceramic tiles; thermal insulation consists of 100 mm of extruded polystyrene. The roof shell is insulated with a layer of mineral wool with a thickness of 300 mm. The windows are made from wooden europrofiles in anthracite color, glazed with insulating double glazing. The interior plasters are stucco, cement-lime, while the exterior plasters are proposed as cement-lime, smooth, tinted in two shades of gray. The metal products are made of galvanized sheet metal. The fencing of the plot is made of plastic-coated mesh, while the retaining walls are constructed from concrete blocks.
