The
investment includes the project of the entrance hall with a lift
shaft at Secondary School No. 10 in Gliwice. It is an example of a
public use facility designed and built to adapt historic school
building for the needs of students with physical disabilities. The
entrance hall is made of reinforced concrete and glass and it is
combined with the silver and gray lift shaft. The extension is
located in the front courtyard of the school. It was designed
according to modern tendency in architecture – doctrine of
contrast. Intentionally, the new facility contrasts with the historic
building. In our opinion, it is reasonable to distinguish and
emphasize the difference of a newly-designed part from the original
building for educational reasons. This raises the awareness of
consumers (here teenage students) of the constantly occurring changes
of civilization- cultural, technical and technological.
Architecture
is also changed by the time and it should express the contemporary
state of civilization, the idea of space and illustrate the technical
possibilities. Architecture, as a part of the culture should shape
and influence the user’s aesthetic sensitivity which is especially
important at young age.
