Idea projektu

The content of this Bachalor thesisis a study and project of family house
In Prague, White Mountain.
The house is located on hillside. The slope is oriented to the south – south-west and offers great views and sunlight qualities.
The goal of this thesis is to buld housing place for four – member family and living part used primarily by grandparents whose visit family frequentely.
At the same time, the house was designed in such a way that it could grow old with the family, i.e. in such a way that the living area for the grandparents can later be used by the younger generation.

Popis projektu

The addressed plot is located in Prague, on Nad Višňovkou Street.
It is defined by a large parcel, which was divided into two parts (the upper, elevated part and the lower part directly connected to Nad Višňovkou Street) as part of the design. The design only focused on the upper part of the parcel.
The plot is overall sloped, oriented to the south-southwest. It offers good qualities such as views and sunlight/daylight.
Most of the surrounding buildings date approximately from the 1930s, although newer development principles can also be observed. It cannot be said with certainty which type of roofs (pitched or flat) predominates.
Considering the site's history and surrounding development, the building was designed with a combination of a gable and flat roof.
The primary factor in designing the family house was the plot itself, specifically its ground plan shape and slope.
From this, the main idea evolved: a broken ground plan shape that follows the boundaries of the plot and, through its placement and orientation, takes advantage of the plot’s values, such as the views.
The break in the ground plan further translates into the layout, dividing the family house both externally and internally, though it remains a single volume.

Technické informace

The main structural system of the family house is designed as a CLT timber construction. Part of the vertical structure in the area of the proposed fireplace in the communal spaces on the first floor is designed as masonry.
The interior layout was designed to meet the specific requirements.
Upon entering the building, after the entrance hall, there is the main living hall, which follows the principle of the broken design. This literally creates a sense of "opening" the interior spaces and offers a direct view of the garden facing south.
The hall also serves as a meeting space. From here, access is provided to both the main and secondary parts of the family house.
The main part of the house, consisting of two above-ground floors and designed with a gable roof, is exclusively intended to meet the needs of a family of four.
On the first floor, the primary spaces are communal areas, such as the living room and the kitchen with a dining area. There is also a bathroom (for household chores) with a utility room and a part entirely reserved for the parents, including a bedroom, a bathroom with a toilet, and a walk-in closet.
On the second floor, there is an office, two children's rooms, and a bathroom with a toilet.
The secondary part of the house, which has only one above-ground floor and features a proposed flat green roof, contains a double garage with a workshop connected to a darkroom. Additionally, directly connected to the living hall, one can access, via a hallway with a closet, the living area for the grandparents who visit the family weekly.
This part, relative to the main house, consists of a smaller living room with a kitchen and dining area, and a bedroom. There is also a bathroom with a toilet connected to the hallway with a closet.
The communal areas in the main part of the house and the grandparents' living area in the secondary part are oriented towards the garden terrace, facing south-southwest.
