City block Badel


Results of competition for the urban-architectural concept design for UrbanBlock Badel redevelopment

official results:

d-a-z. rezultati-natjecaja-blok-badel!
crtatocka.wordpress.com/blok-badel-rezultati/

but:
my starting point is: understanding and fostering  local urban context 


what went wrong till now,
SWOT entire area for answers, local knowledge
one misleading introvert approach: 

big problem solved with a new public road and vernacular styling
CIAM in action

next:
systems approach is constant assessment  what do we belive in  or
how do we live or want to live it isn't
 expecting all the answers from an star_architect or artistic black-box-reasoning

A hint:

this part of ZG downtown is  an exquisite urban set - piece 
where  ZG style desperately ask for empathy
 in vain

a LORE:

no real questions had been raised  therefore no expected answers have been received
for further improvements GO BACK TO zg-school of urbanism
