House for the poor

Requirements: The client – Provincial House of the Sisters of Charity of St. Vincent de Paul in Rijeka – approached us with the request to help improve the conditions for the humanitarian services they provide as part of their spiritual calling – feeding, bathing and comforting the poor and the homeless. We decided that the best solution to the request should include detached House for the Poor inside convent walls. It is a small compact building with a slightly shifted geometry – an answer to the project brief as well as to the location within the existing historical structure.
