ho[us]es in blocks - students' projects exhibition

picture of a block from bottom
Dear all, We are pleased to invite you to an exhibition of projects by our students ho[us]es in the block. The exhibition can be viewed at the Faculty of Architecture, PG Main Building, level III in the corridor near the Department of Environmental Design by room 355.

Zaspa and Przymorze are currently popular, highly rated residential neighborhoods. The 1970s blocks of flats are prefabricated, multi-family residential buildings whose spatial layouts have become obsolete in the face of today's needs of their residents. The student projects show that these apartments have the potential to create comfortable living spaces, adaptable to contemporary expectations. Designed for fictional residents, the interiors are a journey through the imagined home of young people - fourth semester students.
