Learning from Borovje

Zagreb district  Borovje

pedestrian lanes still missing gentile horticultural touch, please plant trees
through the building where are shrubs, pots with flowers, more private initiative

linking settlements with vast void space
- something is missing on the both sides of the bridge
 to say hallo

cheapskates in action:
missing trees at least robinia, and curb side parking  

enclosures   with taste and style  separating denizens
  pretty traditional taste

well equipped villages will provide pedestrian lanes with a strip of flower beds, shrubs next to the fence



























cosy  gardens on the ground level, elevated or depreciated;  yet not on roof -  leider
that looks comme il faut   like a nice start with personal charm


but white aggressive  zigzag fence is  introducing private parking
strange but far more interesting than
a pavement like this obviously instigating car drivers only 
nobody want to live with view on the street 














































At the end - the bright example a fence treated 
as playing ground:  green stuff dotted with children  

really do you  miss some color in wintertime
 are we dulled by abundance of grayish cheep asphalt


but talking about  the color and style
komunalci gdje je taj osjećaj za ljepotu življenja
ljepota je u metodi pokušaja i promašaja i trenutnom ispravljanju pogrešaka
što se traži
openness, clarity and  sensitivity, 
when path and fruit are taken as union

and not to point out an iconographic building
chained by neighboring grayish  buildings that are to close
please use colors 
Bunt is beautiful
but plant more trees 

these buildings are not smiling 
they expect the ante gardens and 
appropriate focal point:

an invitation to visit Savica lakes like:

Learning from Staro Trnje


Trnje most exposed part of Zagreb left bank

a gate
 a harbour
   a village
      a dormitory
people willing to stay /leave  =  dawn/dusk of tradition

lest  a symbol of ZG prospect


part one:   most obvious one,  Tempel of  Amun Re



universal prescription for everything concerning architecture and urbanism  incl.   attitude, scale and respect

glass   justifies pretext of coupling virtual couples in Mr.Struka mind
scale  is the scale of social awareness and deep care for human nature under the sun


part2: symbolic values of Zagreb bridges  specially  next to or inside the recreational areas
Bridge of freedom  Most slobode connecting the braves
SRC Jarun is expecting the same  :(
entrepreneurial Zagreb,  go to Trnje, invest in new Tkalčićeva street
!

get Zagreb in your heart


scope of present generators of change

or the old school missing childern

immanent potentials due to proximity to river Sava 



/
starting point or  fresh-start in modern style
new dormitory  or  entrance Sava

wintertime in the city

December 2012 in Zagreb 
waiting for snow to come 
many leaves are down  but snow is missing 

with Konzum basket in his hand choosing shortcut
Gajnice paradise of concatenated public parks
 finally  ADVENT in Zagreb, 
 city lights too late but better than ever 
Nikola Tesla monument   pastry at zagreb gelateria 
Musical pavilion Zrinjevac
main square  Jelacic with symbols of the past and future 
jelacic square 
transient life of Jelacic square, look who is talking
starting point ilica  street 
flower square new kid in town
unplugged  subtle Garnierung is missing
Gajeva street in blue, scent of Zimt

talking about Art and Religion
 persuading an purpoted egyptian
