KRAKOW OXYGEN HOME Competition
--
Community center to help people with cancer of the lungs.
The project aim is to create delicate space that wakes up imagination. On one hand the building consists of separate private premises, on the other hand, they are not isolated and located around central greenhouse. In that way the project has zones where we can have a feeling of being a part of a community or stay in more private zones. Façade transparency gradient strengthens this feeling. Private zones located beyond half transparent parts of the façade then public zones placed behind transparent façade parts. Greenhouse becomes a symbol of life and renewal which can be seen at any time of the day and throughout a year.
