Project Description

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
During the last 50 years the Bear Habitat gave poor conditions have caused depression to the Bears and Visitors alike.
Small budget, old concrete construction and aesthetic demands for the visitors. Also the new waterfall with pond was to be created.
The building form is defined by the existing building and the new materials and elements we incorporated in the most natural and fun eastehics as we could. Now there’s a window in Bear’s Living Room.

Loši uvjeti 50 godina stare betonske nastambe uzrokovali su depresiju i kod medvjeda i kod posjetioca. Popravili smo to.
Mali proračun, stara betonska konstrukcija, zahtjev za atraktivnim osvježenjem prostora. Također, htjeli smo medi dati novi slap.
Oblik kuće uvjetovan postojećom gradnjom, a materijale i nove elemente smo pokušali upotrijebiti na što prirodniji, ali i zabavniji način. Stvorili smo prozor u dnevni medin boravak.
