Sustainable Construction in the Conservation Area

Abstract:

Contemporary large cities have valuable historical centres from an architectural point of view, which are protected by the Heritage Offices. There can be found a lot of underused lofts under the roofs of those houses, and this is the place where we can find suitable premises for the recovery of the existing environment in its entire environmental context. A sensitive attic unit implemented into the existing generously built roofs in houses following the style Sorela is feasible. Sorela has been widely applied in newly emerging urban areas as for example Ostrava and its suburb Poruba which has been started to be built according to a building plan by Vladimír Meduna since 1951.
