type: housing
status: concept
year of project: 2005
Located
just outside the centre of Ljubljana, the scheme evolved from
the concept developed for the Vivat
Senior Living. Surrounded by trees, the structure
comprises three housing wings, two with single rooms and one
with apartments. Located away from the road, the wings are connected
by a series of glazed lobbies. Each wing is divided by a wide
hallway; community areas located on each floor are diversely
oriented, thus providing different atmospheres during the day
and encouraging migrations throughout the building. A wall runs
along the east edge of the site, separating the complex from
the noise and pollution from the road. Embedded in the wall,
the non-housing building of the complex houses doctors' offices,
medical care unit and various larger community areas.
