Our project is born from the idea of ​​the bridge: a human construction, designed to create bonds and connect communities. In this way our project materializes as a bridge, seeking to connect the Czech Republic and Ethiopia, as well as its people.

Popis projektu

Our project consists of a set of volumes, in which the main volume of the Embassy, ​​is the largest, in a prismatic and materialized Hormigon. This building rests on the elevated terrain, generating a large dry square below and flying over it. In addition to this great prism of concrete, another prismatic volume crosses it at its southern end, generating an interesting volume game. This volume acquires a functional hierarchy by including the housing of the Czech ambassador. All the spaces of importance of the complex overflow to the great central square of the land, being the center of the life of the embassy.
