WIELODROŻNICA

Drawing from our experience, we tried to create a concept that searches for something between a house and an apartment—a synergy, a combination of the advantages of both. A human scale aligned with actual human needs resulted in the design of rational, functional, compact and energy-efficient home-apartments. The average size of a residential unit is 68 m². Uniformity of forms has given way to diversity.

The settlement’s urban layout is the result of avoiding conflicts with the existing greenery—building between the trees, respecting what is already there. Shared spaces, mysterious passages, intimate little courtyards. Places that encourage neighborly interaction, along with private gardens that allow one to retreat in search of privacy.

The designed buildings represent a contemporary form of dense urban development. It is an attempt to find an alternative to high multi-family housing. The buildings are arranged in semi-detached clusters. The project consists of 51 two-unit residential buildings.
