12 photo: Aulik Fiser s photo: Aulik Fiser s Residential houses in Brno Vrbovecká Brno The plasticity of seemingly flat things, a fine game of lights and shades on planes and grating, a relative scale - a compact forest, a panel house - a slab An important motive is the position on the edge of a group of panel houses and the elementary goal is creating architecture of buildings as a transition from a panel development to a free landscape - flats as close to the forest as possible, a forest penetrating in to the flats - large windows, wood to balconies The design emphasizes simple clear shapes and proportions of the whole building and details The north façade facing the panel houses is completely flat; their articulation projecting the internal arrangement of sections and corridors materializes in shallow embossments on the basic mass' level - an exemption are the broken and emphasised entrances to the buildings or individual sections, as the case may be The south front is on the contrary, richer in shapes and materials photo: Aulik Fiser s Project is not public!
