COMMUNITY brings people


Project brief description: The project is located in the center of lower Holešovice on the cross of the streets U Uranie and Komunardů. The unbuilt plot has a very privileged and important spot and will be treated as such. Diverse context includes classic block structure, Ortenovo and Pivovarské squares, renovated brewery and the modern high-rise residential building. The task is to create a knowledge hub/educational space for youth. A space which would support their dreams and encourage realising them and which, on the other hand, does not forget about the other generations. Education centre will include different fields like arts, science, humanities. Cooperation with other civic centres (schools, NGOs, Cultural centres) will be part of the program. Knowledge hub/educational centre would provide facilities, which can’t be found usually in schools and also create platform to network and learn from others. This gives base for healthy community, where youth feel safe to be themselves and would shape their values in life. Also by meeting and respecting the elderly.

Building should be concieved with its various parts and outdoors areas as one interconnecting harmonius structure. As in our information-digital era many resources are available online and can be find in digital option, so part of the designing process should be adding extra values into physical building, which would make young generation still interested to stay (besides the resources and service that are provided inside). It should be accesible, encourage lengthy and frequent visits and human interaction.

Main goal of the project: Main aim of the project is to design a structure whose main functions is providing educational opportunities and be a safe place for self-development of young people between 10 and 23 years old. It will also contain additional functions as the important part of the program will be also to provide a public space, which can be used by neighborhood community, and to support a valuable inter-generation and social dialogue.

Site location


Existing site and surrounding

The site of the project can be characterized as empty, dead, lonely. Due to its size and location it has big impact on urban fabric of Holesovice. The area right now can be understood as developing, changing and growing, that is why it is really important which mood and direction would new architecture bring there. Looking at the following site analyses we can see that it has potential for educational function as there is a lot of residential area and school around. And from density of commercial, services and public spaces it is visible that Komunardu might change whole area in a better way by choosing right program.

Buildings morphology

Site location

Important factor to take into consideration during design was the site building morphology. Project is located at the end of the street block from two sides and its corner facing Ortenovo square, which is important public space in the surrounding and would be main entrance point for visitors. That is why it was crucial to follow follow street grid.


Recreation

Site location

Public transport

Tram stop

Public space Semi-private space

Bus stop

From analyses of Holesovice recreation areas it is visible that neighborhood doesn’t have many comfortable public spaces except Ortenovo square. Good transport connection and central location in the relation to the surrounding area gives good bases for creating public space for people living in Holesovice and its visitors.


Historical context

Holesovice 1900

Holesovice 1939

From historical maps we can see the site plot kept constantly chanhing, but building still kept having facade on the street line, which is very typical for local architecture. It is also interesting that part of projects program intersects with imdustrial past of Holesovice. The building which is facng Ortenove namnesti will be included many workshops, laboratories and studies for people to be able to produce whatever they need and realise their projects/start ups.


Facade inspiration

Exterior during the day and night

Example of Strasbourg School of Architecture by Marc Mimram shows how effectively and interesting can be used semi-transparent aluminium skin is going to be used in my project for the facade material. A metal curtain glides between large bay windows to frame views across the city. By day, the building reflects the changing light as the sun moves around the façade; by night, inside and outside are reversed, revealing the building’s skeleton and morphing between transparent and opaque. Interior

This way complex would continue its life in the street views 24/7. Openings in the perforated aluminum skin would highlight interesting points for to look during the day, while parts hidden by skin, but which still have curtain glazing behind will give a pick of what is happening inside and invite people to join. Corrugated, perforated aluminum


Structural inspiration

The project Nantes School of Architecture by Lacaton & Vassal served as inspiration of the atmosphere, which should be achieved in “Production� part of the complex. It gives industrial and free feeling and at the same time perfectly serves its purpose. Nantes school projects helped me to decide, which materials I want to use for load-bearing system, which is reinforce concrete slabs and columns with translucent facade and having metal staircases and railings.


Public/semi-public inspiration

Educational Park Zenufanรก by FP arquitectura gave an example of successful semi-public space for children, which would is working not in one plane, but intersecting a few of them. And in this way combines circulation space with communication space.


Project design

The community was chosen as the main topic and aim of the project. Therefore, the building was designed to support its life in the city. “Knowledge hub” would be a space for youth. A space which would support their dreams and encourage realizing them and which, on the other hand, does not forget about the other generations. The education centre includes different fields like arts, science, humanities. It would provide facilities, which can’t usually be found in schools and also create a platform to network and learn from others. This gives a base for a healthy community, where youth feel safe to be themselves and would shape their values in life but with the idea of meeting and respecting the elderly.   The complex is divided into four interconnected parts, which have different programs but the same idea behind. The four programs are: “Research”, which is a library – a place where people can get inspired and research for their projects, “Discussion hub“ - a space in which they can learn from others, present their projects, solve common problems and also a place for community to meet and for young people to enjoy themselves. It includes a theatre, forum, lecture rooms, study rooms, dispensary, day-care and room and a youth-centre. The “Production hub” is filled with laboratories, workshops and studios for different fields. Here students and adults can realize

their projects and move them forward. Last but not the least, the sports center, which has different sports directions for students to develop not only mentally, but also physically. These programs came from the idea of having a complex, which would give students an opportunity to develop themselves in all spheres and also give them a chance to cover the whole process cycle starting from research and learning to realization of the final project and sailing it. The buildings are connected between each other by physical and visual bridges which make it possible to move from one space to another without actually exiting the building and also supporting the idea that it’s all one complex and all spheres are connected between each other. Another important part of the project is the terrace, which in each building works differently depending on the function, but all of them making it possible to continue buildings life on the inside and outside of the building. They create outdoor space for work, exercises, experiments, playing and relaxation. Most of the facades are covered with perforated corrugated aluminium mesh to invite people inside and give them a hint of what is happening but still keeping the privacy needed. The exterior mesh also functions as a natural solution to sunlight penetration inside the building or by surrounding illumination.

A Cover Report A 1.1 Name Knowledge Hub A 1.1.1 location Prague 7, Czech Republic A 1.1.2 Address Komunardu 708/4 A 1.2 Architect A 1.2.1 Name Alexandra Yeloyeva A 1.2.2 Residence Kharkov, Ukraine

B Technical Report B 1.1 Electricity/Water/Gas The piping for electricity, water and gas have two systems of travelling; vertically and horizontally. The pipes and cables are guided through the entire building using preplanned shafts that are integrated into the wall and structural system. They are then transported horizontally through the suspended ceilings and drywalls, which are not structural due to a columns system used instead. Due to the sustainable aspect of the building, most of the gas consumption is reduced to a minimum, and instead electricity – partially self obtained by the functioning solar panels on the roof – is used to power and heat the building. The hot water supply comes from the municipal water supplies, since a onsite variant would be less efficient for such a large scale project. However, in addition to the municipal water supply, Solar water heating is an alternative that functions due to the solar panels on the roof. The Solar panels heat up the water tank in the ground that is filled with filtered rain water. For more details, see B 1.2 of the technical report. In addition to the above mentioned systems, a large battery is used to store the excess energy produced by the photosynthetic solar panels. B 1.2 Precipitation management Part of my aim of this project was to reduce the water consumption in general for black and for grey water. To achieve this, the precipitation downfall is lead from all the roofs to a underground tank which stores and filters the water captured. This water is then used mainly as black water, but also to water the greenery on site and – as a plan of my sustainable long term aim – to supply the surrounding

neighbors as well. The Tank consists of two parts – a warm and a cold water tank. The warm water tank is heated by the solar panels on the roof, which is transported there by high pressure pumps. To make sure that the temperature in the tank is guaranteed to stay at a constant temperature, it is coated with a thick layer of insulation, to supply self filtered hot water even in winter days. B 1.3 Waste Management My site features a universal underground recycling area, which is emptied by the municipal waste agency when full. Each bin on the ground floor is connected to this underground recycling area and are divided into the four compartments of waste; Organic, Paper, plastic and mixed. The upper floors use a shaft system, which leads the trash to the designated trash bins. In addition to this, organic material is composted in a area on site, which then functions as organic fertilizer and soil for the site and plants. Due to the universal recycling area, no area will be polluted by freestanding litter. B 1.4 Ventilation The ventilation is mainly driven by a HVAC system, which is placed on the roofs of each building separately, and connects to all the floors to the basement. To hide the elements, the suspended ceiling is maximized to its depth so that all the necessary functions of the HVAC systems can be backed in it. The HVAC system is once again powered by the energy supply company and – if possible – by the solar panels on the roof. In addition to the HVAC system, bottom hung windows are integrated into the fixed window solution, to allow natural ventilation to take place if wanted. Sensors in the windows indicate when they are opened. This signal is sent to the building management system, which then automatically turns of the HVAC system in that part of the building. B 1.5 Fire safety Due to the open courtyard, the fire safety management is handled with ease by the municipal department of Prague 7 and the fleet. Due to the last floor height of 22 meters, the fire department will still have the possibility to access each floor with their ladders. The fire safety inside the building is ensured by the staircases, regulating the air flow, and the bridges to the other buildings as a second fire exit. In addition to that, sprinklers are montages where needed, and feeded by the municipal water supply and the water tank in the basement floor. Smoke detectors automatically open the existing windows when the detection went off, and the placed T30 doors regulate the spread of smoke around the buildings. B 1.6 Insulation


The insulation of the building is guaranteed by the envelope itself, which is partially covered with mineral wool on the walls, and mainly by glazing, which is triple glazed to ensure that the sun-heat gain is kept to a minimum. The roofing consists of a standard roofing layer, topped with gravel which is an ideal insulation solution for both winter and summer days. B 1.7 Structural elements There are multiple structural systems used throughout the building, however the main elements are reinforced concrete columns, steel trusses and reinforced pre-stressed concrete slabs on all floors. The column system allows the building to be versatile in arrangements, and guarantees to hold the additional layer of façade elements mentioned in B 1.5 of the technical report. Most elements mentioned above are poured on site directly into the molds. Long cantilevers are also supported by trusses and the sports centre, above the pitch uses a lattice truss structure to function. The roof also consisted of a pre-stressed slab. However, due to the fact that it is not accessible, no rigid insulation was used for the layer structure. The basement is finished off by a Reinforced concrete slab with a hardcore concrete foundation. B 1.8 Exterior Most of my facades are covered with perforated corrugated aluminum mesh to invite people inside and give them a hint of what is happening, but still keeping the privacy needed. The exterior mesh also functions as a natural solution to sun light penetration inside the building or by surrounding illumination. B 1.9 Interior Due to the open space structural system with columns, the interior is perfectly separated by dry walls where needed. The complex is divided in 4 interconnected parts, which have different programs, but same idea behind. The four programs are: “Research”, which is a library – a place where people can get inspired and research for their projects, “Discussion hub“ - a space in which they can learn from others, present their projects, solve common problems and also place for community to meet and for young people to enjoy themselves. It includes a theater, forum, lecture rooms, study rooms, dispensary, daycare, a IT room and a youth center. The “Production hub” is filled with laboratories, workshops and studios for different fields. Here students and adults can realize their projects and move them forward. Last but not the least is sport center, which has different sport directions for students to develop not only mentally, but also physically. All the buildings are connected by bridges which are above the ground floor plan.
