Glazija

Residential and business complex Glazija is located by one of the main road-entering in the city of Celje. Complex is divided in three programs: -business part, witch follows Ljubljana road -residential part, laying along parcel parallel to side of the existing (multi floor) garage house -communication block where there are all service programs enabling undisturbed function of residence and business volume. Specific element of residence part is the communication block witch is located on the back side of the object. It protects the residential part from gas fumes coming from multi floor garage. Communication block also serves as an anti-noise protection for resident area by reducing noise from the multi floor garage and Spar store. City of Celje lays on flooded area and there for the building of cellars is prohibited. The building of ground floor chambers would take up much of the commercial area so the chambers are organized within the communication block near by each flat.
