ATRIUM - ZÁRUBOVA ELEMENTARY SCHOOL, PRAGUE 12

IN THIS RELAXATION ZONE OF THE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL, CONCRETE AND WOOD DOMINATE - MORE SPECIFICALLY, EXOTIC GARAPA WOOD, WHICH IS PERFECT FOR MOMENTS OF RELAXATION.

THE 1X1 METER CONCRETE PAVING TILES ENLARGE THE SMALL ATRIUM SPACE. ON THE SIDES, THE AREA IS ADORNED WITH PERENNIAL PLANTS, WHILE IN THE CENTER, THERE ARE DECORATIVE CONTAINERS WITH BAMBOO AND MAGNOLIAS, WHICH WILL PROVIDE PLEASANT SHADE IN THE FUTURE.

ALL GREENERY IS EQUIPPED WITH AUTOMATIC IRRIGATION. THE LARGE STAGE DIRECTLY INVITES OUTDOOR TEACHING ACTIVITIES.

FOR THE IMPLEMENTATION ITSELF, A CRANE WAS NECESSARY TO TRANSPORT THE EXISTING UNUSED MATERIALS AS WELL AS THE MATERIALS FOR BUILDING THE FLOWER BEDS, THE STAGE FOUNDATIONS, AND THE TRANSPORTATION OF LARGE-FORMAT TILES WEIGHING 145 KG PER PIECE OVER THE SCHOOL ROOF.

TO CREATE THE VISIBLE CONCRETE IN THE SEATING AREA, A CONCRETE PUMP WITH A LENGTH OF 32 METERS WAS USED. EVEN OUR 3-TON EXCAVATOR was lifted AND HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO SEE THE PRAGUE SKYLINE FROM ABOVE FOR THE FIRST TIME IN ITS LIFE.
