Description
Summary:The newly constructed social housing apartment building in Požarevac is a successfully completed design effort to create quality residential architecture and a spatial environment suitable for its future users, within the framework of rigorous spatial norms and limited financial resources. The urban architectural solution indicates an integral consideration of contextual conditions, spatial and functional requirements and the specific needs of the targeted, socially disadvantaged categories of tenants. The basic principles of the design methodology applied are an adequate standard of housing, social responsibility, visual expressiveness and architectural attractiveness, as well as an improved approach to understanding the complexity of the development of social housing in Serbia.
