REUSE OF KOŠÍŘE DEPOT

The diploma thesis partially builds on the pre-diploma seminar elaborated in the Císler Pazdera studio, where the solved area of Košíře was defined and possibilities for utilizing the potential of the locality were determined. The thesis was further independently developed with a focus on the issue of the Košíře Tram Depot, which has long been unused and decaying despite its great potential for a public building. After lengthy analyses, urban baths with an indoor pool were selected for the actual utilization program. The original building is approached very sensitively, and the new hall structure of the pool was primarily chosen to be wooden truss construction after analyses and with consideration for continuity with the original building. Part of the project also includes the creation of a new public square in front of the pool building.
