concept "LEGO"
Almaks building is imagined as a freestanding house shaped through three distinguished functional and structural zones:
. business- public and service in partially underground ground floor
. business on the first floor
. housing on the second floor
Concept is defined through horizontal and vertical overlapping of basic prismatic forms.
The conceived "Lego" concept splits the housing and business zone.
The identity of each zone is emphasized through its material, and its natural and orientation toward the surrounding area.

materijalization

Housing zone is wrapped in warm, domestic materials and cozy darkish colors and oriented toward the south.
More specifically, ground floor is clad in natural concrete, and first floor in Aluminum in shinny silver color. Second floor is clad in wood panels Parklex in dark cherry color.
