Programme: Environment

The project proposal envisages the reconstruction of the current Old People's Home in the village of Banya. Building A is a three-story residential building, and building B is a two-story building, in which there is a canteen with a kitchen and a storage area attached to them. The current project adds a new Building C, west of Building A and adjacent to the existing lift, to serve the new extension as well, to meet the quality standards of residential care for the elderly over the working age set out in the Quality Ordinance of social services and according to the Social Services Act.
With the reconstruction of building A, no structural changes are imposed, but the aim is to improve the lives of users, which helps to achieve the goals of the service with an accessible architectural environment. All living rooms have separate vestibules, room and bathroom and are for two residents. The exception is two rooms for three residents. With the remodeling, these rooms are transformed into a "box for two". The project completely replaces the furniture in the entire building.
Building B - a canteen with a kitchen is located perpendicular to building A. During the development of building B, a major reconstruction of the kitchen was necessary to meet the sanitary and hygienic requirements. For this building, it is planned to be equipped with modern professional appliances and a complete replacement of the equipment with new tables and chairs.
Building C – residential /extension to building A/. The building will be monolithic, consisting of two residential floors. On each floor there will be three double rooms and one "boxoniera" for two. The furnishing of the rooms will provide each resident with a bed, a table, a chair, a wardrobe and a cabinet for personal belongings. The intended beds will be multifunctional (medical) to meet the needs of persons who are in a more serious state of health.
