Chapter I Analysis

11 In relation to its urban context, the site is a cluster of rocks and green spaces disconnected from the city fabric. Located at the meeting point of the Bubenec neighbourhood, a new development project along the river and Stromovka park, it has the potential to become an attractive center for the gathering of multiple communities.

How will it become a focus point and not an isolated strip of grass?

How will the connections of each extremities be enhanced?

How will the once existing familiarity of the community grow back?

system in the 19th century, which’s purpose was to increase connections between places proceeded to subdivide the landscape into 4 fractions of land.

The result is a severed block of land, a multicompartment green junk space.

The wide variety of building typologies present in the surrounding urban tissue reinforces

this identity disparity, different anatomies.

A physical barrier is created by the tracks, which should be broken, in order to stitch the site to its surroundings, and fasten the neighbourhoods together.

In continuation, the program needs to be primarily oriented towards the local community without dismissing the potential connection to a bigger scale environment.

Habitual users As the Bubenec train station is to be repurposed, the municipality of Prague 6 organized surveys involving the future users of the site.

16

Upon observing the survey data and participation statistics, the design will be oriented towards a public composed of young adults (19-25), adults (2644) and a future generation of growing children. The design will also function in regards to the surrounding school

Occasional users While the survey shows the interested public is mostly living and established in the Bubenec neighbourhood, potential connections through stromovka and the main transport systems (train and bus) should not be dismissed.

Chapter II Concept

19 While an urban renewal takes place on the site, transforming from a simple transition space to a node between neighbourhoods, the architectural creation nourishes from the inside of the present buildings, joining the vast urban scale to the modest structural detailing.

Chapter III Design

27 After developing an urban context to site approach for the conception of the master plan, the architectural creation evolved from the core structure of the station, its structural masonry grid creating the groundwork for the new construction.

How to look into the new nourishing into the past?

How to leave space for experimentation and avoid cloning?

B.2.1 Purpose : the proposed units will function as

B.1.3 Security and protection : the public space is available 24/7, while interior spaces are locked to avoid intrusions.

B.1.4 Position in relation to inundation : flooding is not a particular issue in the area.

B.1.5 Impact on surrounding buildings and properties : the re-purposing will not have a major impact on surrounding infrastructures, however it will greatly impact the urban connections, specifically in regard to Stromovka.

B.1.6 Requirements on demolitions and cutting trees : most of the greenery on site is kept as is, additional trees are placed along the street line and in the public space.

No buildings are demolished.

B.1.7 Requirements on the maximum appropriation of agricultural land or appointed as forest : No requirements are set.

B.2.2.2 Architectural design : while existing structuresâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; finishes are stripped down to expose structural brick, the new constructions are built of timbers, bricks and metal. The existing buildings masonry structures fulfill all load-bearing requirements needed for the repurposing.

B.2.3 Access to and within the building for the disabled : available via ramps and elevators.

B.2.4 Safety of use : the building does not contain risks for its users.

B.2.5 Basic characteristics of the building B.2.5.1 Architectural design : the new design will interfere with the existing on-site infrastructure without interfering with their structural system.

B.2.7.6 Partitions : brick partition walls are used throughout the buildings.

B.2.7.7 Staircases : two staircases are designed. One is mainly for the employees of the multimedia library and the second for users of the workshops. Both are made of the reinforced concrete. Staircases have to be dilated by a trapes boxes and corbel elements system in the walls and in the perimeter joint insulation to prevent vibrations of the staircase.

B.2.7.8 Thermal insulation : glass fiber insulation and recycled glass insulation are used throughout the building in a concern for sustainability. See detail.
