Built space
Residential building GUTINULUI 3
Project description
Oriented towards the historical center of Cluj, the streets ensemble that mark the Hajongard area is a composition of historic lots, with picturesque gardens from which you can see the towers of the churches located in the city center. On one of these streets, Gutinului, on the last available lot, we designed a small, bourgeois building, with 6 different apartments, arranged on a land with a significant slope. Structurally, the proposed object is a reversed L, with a strong console towards the street, where the height of the building is relative to the existing one, Ground floor (open in our case) and two floors containing two of the apartments. Facing the garden there are the other four apartments, each with generous terraces overlooking the silhouette of the city. Thus, the building reveals two valences, depending on the direction of sight, the volumetric surprise being generated by the arrangement on the slope
