Bowling Club
Horoměřice, Czech Republic
The assignment was the construction of a bowling centre and restaurant, making maximum use of the original agricultural building.The philosophy of the design was to preserve the original building of the barn both physically and spatially, to cut it apart radically down the entire length and join on a new building annexed to the original building lengthways. No contrast was created between the old and the new, but on the contrary a complete whole where these joins are not apparent.
For the four main bowling alleys the original stone nave of the barn is used, part of the roof of the barn is raised for the full length, open and horizontally extended over the newly built building. The top of the wall of the original barn forms the balustrade of the restaurant. The guest in the restaurant therefore actually looks down through the open roof into the original barn – the bowling alleys. For the further premises of the restaurant use was made of the mass of farm buildings adjoining the barn and one another. The difference in the levels of the original buildings was reflected in the interior of the restaurant.
Visually the chief materials of the building are the original repaired stone walls of the barn and the intermingling old and new wooden construction elements painted with blue-grey-green varnish. Both are supplemented by large blocks of yellow-beige smoothed concrete. The emphasis is on subdued colours and the patina of the materials.
