Project Description
Project description provided by ORA - This space is neither a street nor a square; it is a leftover area situated at the intersection of two urban structures. Simply put, it’s a patch.
The revitalization of the patch was part of a larger project called Brnox, led by artist Kateřina Šedá. This project maps the Brno district of Zábrdovice, a multicultural melting pot currently undergoing significant gentrification pressures. In addition to mapping the area through a guidebook, the project includes several artistic and architectural interventions within the district itself – from designing a wayfinding system and public furniture to the architectural transformation of specific sites. One of the selected locations was the patch in front of the local emergency housing.
