TURNOV GLASSWORKS

The design of the townhouse in Turnov was created as part of a new city block for small business owners. The building connects the production, presentation of glass, administration and housing. The main motif was glassmaking, a craft connected to the region and the author's family history. The house has one underground and five above-ground floors. The ground floor is open to the public with a shop and a demonstration workshop, the upper floors contain a grinding room, offices and a duplex apartment with a terrace. The architecture is based on transparency, the connection of functions and an active relationship with the city.
