The parcel is located in the urban area in Brno where are situated mostly family houses and small apartment houses. It is a better situated district, which is also surrounded by nature and provides valuable views.
The basic idea is to create a building with several apartments on the area with dimensions 28 x 39 m, which will have a standard of living in a family house. That means creating a private garden for each apartment with direct access from the main part of the apartment . Equally important are the views to the surroundings which are orientated to the several cardinal directions.






The basic element of the building is a prism with dimensions 7x7x3m. Individual blocks are placed at each other and it makes various height levels and overall structure of the house - the spiral. The mass of the house is connected to cylinder - external escape staircase which is in contrast to the main solid.

As the main material used is white facade facing , which contrasts with the protrusive window openings, which are lined with corten as an outdoor staircase. An important element of the building is greenery, from the green roofs to integrated pots in the lofts.
