On the edge of Horní Jirčany, a new complex of buildings embodies a bold vision—to combine a retirement home with a kindergarten. The most challenging aspect of the design was fitting the required capacities on the site, while still maintaining a relatively small scale in keeping with the surrounding development. The complex is divided into three main volumes: two serve as assisted living apartments, and one houses the kindergarten. The apartment buildings, connected by a glazed corridor topped with a green roof, form an acoustic barrier shielding an inner garden, which serves as a shared outdoor space for both facilities. The apartment buildings are divided into smaller formal units with individual roofs that help reduce their overall scale. The kindergarten, containing a single classroom and a small community room, is placed close to a nearby forest and follows the same architectural language established by the retirement home.
