Social Housing Poljane by Bevk Perovi? arhitekti

The Poljane housing complex is located near a road crossing dynamic outside Maribor. It consists of four buildings (2 blocks + 2 towers), a total of 13 departments. The project – limited to the existing hard urban plan area, which needs to be point to point – replace outdoor spaces exist with public use areas within the buildings.

Vast empty spaces – “enclosures” public – are carved in the volumes of the blocks and were assigned public programs. These areas are covered – designed as spaces for outdoor play – such as green roofs facing the sun.

Departments, organized around the central core of communication, are of a standard type, but their individuality is expressed with colorful balconies, embedded in the plane of the departments. The balconies appear in different positions on the front and work as accents that give the entire complex dynamic.

Block section is also readable on the facade. Stacked blocks with its facade of corrugated cement panels mark the departments, while the horizontal clear around the building, marking the floors. The choice of materials and appearance of the facade are the industrial character of the surroundings.
