Apartment Building Vídeňská

Apartment Building Vídeňská Close

The house defines its appearance from the urban context in which it is located.
First of all, from the location on the promontory in the common street development of Vídeňská Street, created in the past and now removed.
As the only mass, it corresponds to the tower of the Church of the Merciful Brothers and thus creates imaginary pylons of the gate to the city.
Another strong factor in the location and form of the house is the distant view from the opposite street, where the building is clearly used as an inconspicuous solitaire, although different at any time of day!
The third influencing moment is the reaction to the surroundings, when the technical detail of the corridor glazing required by the investor is elevated from commonplace to something that could be called a jewel of architecture: the clips anchoring the glass to the structure are made of polished stainless steel. At certain times of the day, the facade shines with many mirrors reflecting the sky. He poetically reminds himself of the order and logic of himself.
