Architecture and urban design for business zone - Information-technology park

IT park Osijek claims the central position amongst defined business zones located on the south margine of the city. These are yet to be built, but their future connection plays an important role within this urban planning solution. Therefore, the goal is to create a green public space which is, for now, to be used by a socially diverse community to gather, interact and relax. Then, in the future, to be indeed the true definition of a park or a green public square in a business district of the city. Two types of public green spaces with different ambients are formed between business buildings. Their disposition comes from "breaking" the urban block which is found in the surrounding urban tissue. Technology and nature's symbiosis is transferred from urban planning to architecture itself, to the extent that a worker of the highest business floor can access nature in just a few steps. Green terraces with two different characters are a way of pulling the nature inside of the building. As well as the transition from unbuilt south to densely built north rim of the city, green space is read as bigger and more open on the south and west side, and smaller and more private on the north an east side of the business tower. Contrast between built and natural is also visible on the building's facade - a diagrid construction "filled" with greenery.
