Adaptacija obiteljske kuće uvijek
je izazovan zadatak. A Tomislav Ćurković i Zoran Zidarić nude vrlo jednostavan odgovor – čiste oblike, dobre detalje i odmjerene
proporcije.
Stara kuća u Andrijevićevoj ulici
25 u Zagrebu karakterističan je primjer bezlične konfekcijske izgradnje pedesetih i šezdesetih godina. Kameni temelj, žbukano prizemlje, streha paralelna s
ulicom, ulaz smješten na bočnoj zabatnoj strani. Adaptacijom arhitekti odbacuju dvostrešni krov. Reorganiziraju prizemlje
dodavanjem velike uzdužne lođe
na dvorišnoj strani i smještanjem stubišta uz južnu stranu. Proširuju garažu u dubinu i nadograđuju kat. Istodobno, povećanjem volumena zadržavaju postojeće strukturne odnose. Središnji hodnik koji dijeli prostor na uličnu i dvorišnu stranu postaje okosnica novog rasporeda.

The adaptation of a family
house is always a great challenge. But Tomislav
Ćurković and Zoran Zidarić offer a very simple solution – pure form, good details and
balanced proportions.
The old house at Andrijevićeva Ulica 25 is a typical example
of the impersonal, ready-to-use buildings of the 1950s and
1960s - stone foundations, a ground floor with plaster façade, eaves parallel to the street and an entrance located on the
gable side of the house. The adaptation eliminated the gable roof. The architects reorganised the ground floor by adding a large loggia, which stretches along the whole length of the building facing the courtyard, and a stairway on the
building’s south side. They extended the garage, giving it more depth, and added another floor to the house, keeping the existing structural relations.
The central corridor, which divides the dwelling into areas looking onto the street and
those looking onto the
courtyard, has become the
basis for the new layout.
