The location is a green area on the border of three districts and a former toll-house, which is now under local protection, a ruinous building condemned for demolition.
Due to the few services and job opportunities typical to the area, many people commute between the city center and their homes. There is almost no opportunity to relax, study or work together. Most social activities therefore take place at home or in the distant inner city.
With the swelling of the agglomeration, the districts that were previously considered to be remote are slowly becoming metropolitan, but this process is mainly observed in the construction of apartment buildings. At the same time, it would be important to create new public spaces, in a way that the calm character of the neighborhood remains.
My goal was to create a public space, library building and a garden that responds to the mentioned problems with urban spaces and services, and protects our built heritage and endowments.
