The project carefully analyses the potential for transformation of a strip along the river Váh in Trenčin. Two aspects of the work were particularly appreciated by the Jury.
The first is the multi-scalar approach. It consists of considering the problem at both regional and urban scales and proposing specific solutions at individual points of intervention. The method of analysis and procedure changes with the different scales.
A second valuable aspect is the apparent modesty of the intervention. A remarkably high design culture is evident in relation to the landscape and all the important components of the environment. The design approach is not one of hard transformation but rather of soft co-evolution resulting from a deep understanding of the features of the environment.
A very professional way of presenting the work is also worth appreciating: it is readable, clear, neatly structured. The presentation itself is a narrative demonstrating an understanding and interpretation of the area along the river and justifying the solutions adopted. The efficient and professional technique is undoubtedly a strong point of the work.
