PECTIN
Annotation
-Thickening agent -
-cellular structure-
-plant tissue holding together the complexmicroworld of the cell.
In order for Petřiny to also become a functioning, self-sufficient cell of the city, pectin is being grown and wrapped around aging blockhouses from the 1950s.
The extension thus enriches the housing estate with public amenities in more dimensions and levels than just the ground floor.
However, the ground level is also changing and trying to improve and connect the individual parts of the space as fluently as possible.
The most significant transformation is on the main axis of Petřiny, where is an effort to change the atmosphere of a wide boulevard full of traffic communication into a lively and diverse space for everyone.
