ZIP CABIN

Michaela Šimková

Annotation

The cabin serving as the starting station for the zip-line is located in the Prokop Valley. Here you can enjoy an adrenaline ride through the air with a view of Prague. A solid steel rope is stretched across the valley and with the help of a pulley and a climbing harness it is possible to overcome a distance of 80 m at a height of 18 m above the ground. The starting point is a cabin located on the slope at the edge of the rock. Due to its location, the floor is not horizontal like in normal buildings, but consists of four steps. The stairs also serve as a storage space for tools needed for driving or for tools for possible repairs. In case of bad weather, the cabin can be closed from the access side. All dimensions are based on the modulor design of the well-known architect Le Corbusier.
