The project represents another
step in redevelopment of the downtown area of Murska Sobota.
On the corner of a former derelict industrial site, the two
volumes enclose the courtyard behind. Building One addresses
the urban street, its facade features a variation of pronounced
rectangular forms. Building Two faces the more private open
green areas on the south. On the back, access to individual
apartments is provided by a long sheltered walkway. On the front,
the faceted glass structure encloses loggias, protecting them
from street noise. Serigraphed sunflowers provide additional
protection from the afternoon sun and an adequate level of privacy.
