DESIGN DEVELOPMENT
The main entrance to the building is located on its northern side. It is defined by two offset walls and an access ramp.
From the entrance hall, where a ticket shop is located, there is direct access to the stands and basements.
At the basement level, there are, in addition to the main hall with three training spaces, also changing rooms for participants and referees, as well as technical rooms.
The construction of a low-energy multi-purpose sports hall in Slovenia is a milestone in developing energy-efficient public buildings.
INTERIOR DESIGN
The interior of the building is characterized by materials such as wood, visible concrete, white plaster, and glass. Great attention was paid to the harmonious arrangement of the individual pieces of equipment which creates a restrained, yet elegant interior.
SITE PLAN
The intended location for the construction of the passive sports hall is directly next to Mengeš Primary School, on the site of the existing outdoor playgrounds.
To the east of the intended site of construction flows the river Pšata while the entire area is characterized by extensive green park-like and recreation areas.
It was this exceptional quality of the surroundings that was one of the main drivers in the placement of the building and the design of the hall itself.
The building "communicates" with the outer green surfaces through its glazed surfaces on the southern side and visually becomes an integral part of them.
The primary access to the sports hall is located on the northern side of the building where there is also a connection to the existing primary school.
