Opis
Aim of the new development is to establish a harmonic relation between the developed and undeveloped spaces and an interrelation with the surrounding urban tissue. The particular emptiness of this “not-completed” block gives the opportunity to create a mix of uses, hosting residential buildings and new functions at this time not present in the area, such as: trading and catering amenities, offices, administration, amenities intended for the local community, such as cultural and comfortable spaces for informal gatherings as an important social ritual in Zagreb, libraries, coffee houses, etc. The vertical option gives the opportunity to create large public open spaces connecting the surrounding streets with the inner part of the block through the introduction of pedestrian streets from the block perimeter towards its internal space, where three new squares will be created around the trading, cultural and leisure centres. By these means the lively activities of the market located nearby will spill over into the Badel Block space. The open spaces will be enriched by new green areas with many trees: linden (Tilia cordata L.) in the inner squares of the block and maples (Acer campestre L.) along pedestrian streets, being both typical of Zagreb region and common along city streets. These species will show changing colours throughout seasons: green during spring and summer and yellow/orange/red during wintertime.
Historical buildings and facades are maintained. The conjunction of past and modern architectural forms safeguards the identity of the place and its memories. The project also considers a connection between the historical building by Grenier and Fischer in Vlaška St. and the piazza in front of the market square, by means of a pedestrian street.
