WAWEL RESIDENCE
| Location: Krakow | Category: Residential | Size: < 40,000SQM | Status: Under construction |Local architect: ABP c.z.
Located in the heart of historic Krakow, this luxury residential development encompasses three listed buildings in addition to the substantial new built areas. The scheme enables the completion of the urban block and the creation of a new square opposite the church. The primary challenge has been the fusing of the various elements that make up the project. Floor heights, various boundary lines, architectural detailing and challenging relations with the surrounding neighbors has meant that this scheme has had to overcome a great many obstacles. Processes within both art and architecture often thrive when confronted by contradictions and constraints and the complexity of this project has produced a particularly rich discourse between differing historical periods and contemporary considerations. Following our other award winning projects in Krakow, Wawel Residence is currently under construction and is schedule to be completed in 2016.
