| description:

Urban design proposal for the future development of Pilsen. Emphasis was primarily laid on gradual regeneration and redevelopment of already existing environment. The proposal has a form of reccomendations addressed to the city authorities, describing how to transform so far desintegrated and dysfunctional city into more harmonic whole. The design method started with identifying of the most importatnt parts of the city organism and characteristic clusters within them. Each of these clusters of characteristic spatial and social structure was then followed across time during its transformation into the recommended optimal state. Proposal’s goal was to reflect not only the transformation of physical environment, but social aspects of the city as well.
