Subject of the project is municipal housing in Louny. Louny is a small town in Ústecký region, one hour away from the capital city of Czech Republic – Prague. Subjected site is on western periphery of the town. The site is located behind old housing estate in a really heterogeneous build-up area. There is a mixture of the housing estate, family houses, allotments and a heating plant. All this meets in one corner, on which the site is situated. In the wider area there are also some supermarkets and factories with warehouses. The topic of the project is to design municipal housing on this site. Housing owned by the town represents only 1,13% of the total number of apartments in the city. There are only 87 apartments in the town´s ownership. In my project, I bring 49 new apartments, which would significantly increase the current situation. Several factors suitable for the design of these apartments met in the selected area: the land belongs to the town, the supply of rental or municipal housing is generally low, the demand after it is high and is foreseen to continue rising. The added value in the design is the creation of space for the community both outdoors and indoors. The apartment units are designed for maximum use and at the same time for living full life in smaller apartment. The proposal is also conceived as a connection of the mismatched neighborhood. The goal of the project is to create a place that is pleasant to live in, supporting the creation of community and interpersonal relationships while maintaining the economic availability of both housing and construction. To create housing suitable for different groups of residents with different requirements, while preserving the unity of the layout system and the modularity of the building.
