"Mlinska cesta" Ptuj 2012 Urban Design Workshop

The "Mlinska cesta" (Miller Road) urbanism workshop was aimed at designing the urban planning concept for the vast area between the right bank of the Drava River and Mlinska cesta in Ptuj.The basic programme starting points for siting residential and commercial buildings were established according to the individual land-owners’ set of interests.The proposed solution constitutes a synthesis of initiatives and the spatial limitations of the location, while taking into account its exceptional position in relation to the historical "city backdrop". The area is located on an axis of the attractive Ptuj Castle vista, while, in the opposite direction, the northern border of the area represents the "green" line of the river banks, which - in the visual sense - is "protected" in the broader area of the town.
