02 Cafe 9/3
Public-Service facility PUT, 2nd year, 2021
Designed area surrounded by low-rise single or multi-family housing, maintains suburban atmosphere, the proximity of the historic fort and lots of greenery gives the place an amazing character. In order to create a unique meeting place in this place we focused on leading lines, the plot is a kind of closure and dominant of 3 streets, that's why we focused on strong exposition of the corner and unusual shape of the plot inspired us to use simple form of triangle in every way. Due to the lack of a specific form of the roof, by the local development plan, we tried to adapt to the surrounding buildings and in this way we obtained an unusual roof which looks different from every perspective. Due to the close access to the center we wanted to obtain the effect of a cafe on the corner which can be a great beginning of our trip to the Old Market and the glass elevations and oriented triangular forms encourage to enter at least for a moment to observe the penetrating forest and greenery on the fort area. The name of our facility "9/3 Cafe" refers to the neighboring fort no. IX and 3 to the triangles that surround us from all sides of the building.
Referring to Fort IX as well as a large amount of greenery. We focused on the fine detail of the facade using durable Scandinavian larch. In order to be in harmony with nature we have introduced a green roof with water retention and rainwater harvesting. Wooden elements of the facade not only enrich the form with interesting vertical beams but also allow for a more pleasant reception in symbiosis with the green roof giving a pleasant subtle similarity to the colors of forests and fort buildings in the area.
03 La Nave
cultural conservations center design and analisys ETSAM, 3rd Year, 2021
Throughout the entire project, we focused on the idea of a public place, that will connect people and will try to invite them to each other not only during special events, by introducing two wide walkways in the middle and lots of greenery. The place that encourages everyday walks, which end with a majestic pedistran walkway on the triangular roofs will diversify each day.
We focused on leaving many elements that make up the history of this place, the characteristic triangular roofs which today will serve the functions of introducing the switch and collecting energy through solar panels, inspiring high fighting, we wanted to combine the city structure and technology with careless walk and corridor in the midst of all the rush, creating green strips covering old factories and parking lots.

We give a new function to the whole place, maintaining its atmosphere, it was important for us that it should not be an ordinary shopping or conference hall, but for me a place where people spend more time observing previously unknown views. Surrounded by nature and cast iron structures that harmonize perfectly with each other, giving city life to an old building.

04 Green Rooftop of Poznań
urban-architectural concept of developing the area at F. Roosevelta Street in Poznan 2022 Competition project 2022
Our proposed plan is an extension of the urban grid of Jeżyce and the Old Town, creating their connection while taking into account the openings required by the conservator. The whole form and the greenery routed through it refers to the green wedges at the nearby Stuebben Ring. We have created a flowing composition of blocks covered and surrounded by numerous plants, which covers the need for greenery in the currently empty space, providing both office, cultural, public and catering space and a kind of urban garden. The designed buildings are separated by alleys, between which a modern space full of life would be created thanks to the gastronomic and cultural facilities located in the project. Both during the day it would be an attractive place for people who work, do sports, stroll or want to relax in a pleasant environment, and in the evening for people who want to spend time in company. To be sure that such an idea has a raison d'être, it is enough to look at which places in Poznań attract the most residents - they are, above all, places full of greenery which never fails to have a soothing effect. That is why the surrounding of the buildings is filled with recreation and leisure points in a friendly environment. The buildings are surrounded on all sides by a footbridge at the level of Roosevelt Street. Below this level, there are railroad and streetcar tracks (visible at the opening between buildings 4 and 5), foundation pillars or underground storeys of some buildings and part of the preserved existing tree stand. The footbridge connects the Collegium luridicum in Poznań, stops at the Kaponiera Roundabout, Teatralny Bridge, Henryk Wieniawski Park and also descends to the ground level in the unbuilt part, ending with stairs and an exit for people using wheeled vehicles. Also access to the roofs is provided from the side of the bus stop at the Kaponiera Roundabout, which enables full access also for the disabled, thanks to the appropriate slope of the terrain.
05 The gate of Wilanów
building with the function of a public toilet at the King John III Palace Museum in Wilanów Competition project 2022
Two freestanding pavilions were designed, functional and communicative, connected with the Orangery building, taking into account the concept of the exhibition and reception pavilion (eastern) with the function of a public toilet. Inspired by the layout of the palace gardens, the plan is closed by the razor blades hanging from the ceiling, which are the extension of the arches of the Orangery façade, fixed in the structure crowning the roof of the pavilion. The façades were made of glass panels mounted on glass pillars, giving the whole lightness, highlighting the architectural values of the Orangery. The subterranean storey is accessed by a historic staircase, reminiscent of the arches, and an elevator, installed to remove any obstructions to the use of the pavilion. The design of the pavilion creates a new place to encourage the cultural life of the local community and tourists, as a kind of gateway to the existing building, highlighting its cultural and aesthetic value. Based on the eight principles of universal design, the design of the Pavilion complies with these principles by implementing solutions such as: ramps and elevator, intuitive floor plan, automatic doors, entrance at level 0, appropriate size of usable rooms, use of barrier-free products in the bathrooms - usability of rooms for everyone

Urban site analisys of Genoa Campasso area, between Genoa Sampierdarena and Certosa, was born as a parade ground, a destination that limited residential expansion, but that opened the way to transformation into a place of infrastructural service. The railway service began in the second half of the nineteenth century, with the installation of two substantial bundles of tracks .As a road junction it stands out in the twentieth century, with the construction of the A10 freeway and in particular of the Morandi Bridge, which has long characterized and conditioned the environment, landscape and daily life of the district, until the sudden collapse in August 2018. The collapse has distorted the already difficult situation of the neighborhood, putting it in front of new problems, old problems that have worsened and difficult challenges for the future.

The heliocentric house was designed in Kruszewnia near Poznan. Its main idea is to open it to sunlight and provide residents with pleasant spending of time in illuminated spaces. The effect was obtained by deliberate deviation of the smaller modular block by 10 degrees to expose the terrace and glazed east-south elevation of the building.
