Idea projektu

The basic idea is a sense of safety for this project. And I want to take something typical of middle Europe. I decided on some kind of castle or convent like for main building. But I want something typical of Ethiopia for local forces housing. So I take a traditional house for shell and fill it with European disposition.

Popis projektu

I want to achieve a sense of security with the closed and connection dispositions of embassy. The building of consular and visa department is only part of the embassy accessible from outside. There are two security entrances and one emergency exit into the area of embassy.
Functional sections - On the ground floor are all representative spaces with protected atriums for visitors at time of some action, in another time are they for employees to. Also, maidtenance rooms, covered parkings spaces and office sectios B and C are there. On the first floor are staff apartments, ambassador residence, office section A and terraces. On the second floor are staff apartments and office section D.

Technické informace

Mainly material used in the building is concrete. It's used to walls, ceiling, and flat roofs. Wood is used to a sloping roof, also to floors and wall claddings. Also, stone (marble, granite) is used to floors and wall claddings in representative spaces.
