I was born on 6 October 1986 in Tychy, Poland, where I lived until I started my studies in the architecture faculty at the Silesian University of Technology in Gliwice. After the third year of my studies I decided to leave to the Netherlands and enrich my education with the practical experience. I did one year internship in Amsterdam, and this experience changed my entire approach towards my future. After my internship I continued my education in Valencia, to finally come back to the Nertherlands and finish my master in Delft. Simuntanously I was finishing my 5 years master program in Poland and in 2012 I graduated from both Universities and received a degree of Master of Science. Since then I’ve worked both in the office and on my individual projects searching an opportunity to broaden my knowlegdge about architecture and design and efficiently use my current skills in the projects.

HOUSE IN TYCHY

Place : Tychy, PolandStatus: in progressDesign: 2014Execution: 2015/2016Investor: Maciej Kozyrain collaboration with Mateusz Mastalski

NIGHT ZONE DAY ZONE

The single family house is to be located in Tychy on a diffiicult plot with the entrance from the west side and connection to forest on the east side. The wish of the clients was to close off the house from the neigbours and open it to the forest while maintaining the maximum exposure of the living spaces to the western sun.

To achieve maximum pravicy the night zone is placed in the middle of the house surrounded by the series of double high spaces. Those day-zone spaces function as a buffer to the outside, making the night zone a place of tranquality and rest. The bedrooms get direct sunlight from the roofwindows. Moreover they have additional windows towards the high spaces connecting them with the rest of the house.

The double high spaces accomodate inter alia 2 verandas and a shelter for a car. Verandas placed both from the east and west side of the house allow enjoying the sun during the different time of a day. The living room - connected to both verandas- is exposed to both east and west light and enjoys the maximum view to the garden.

DROP (IN) CENTERDAY CENTER FOR STREET CHILDREN

Place : Moshi, TanzaniaStatus: graduation project, TU DelftDesign: 2012Main Tutor: Robert Nottrot

individual project

The concept of the project is based on the analysis of social problems in Moshi, as well as the contextual analysis of the plot, by finding its risks and potentials. The main aim of the design was to create a space for street children where they could learn, play and rest. The place should be a secure base where children would like to come back to, that they would be proud of and which they would take care of as it was their own. At the same time, to improve a public image of children and restore their position in the community,. The place should be a field of integration and dialogue between children and citizens of Moshi. The building must therefore be attractive for both groups while maintaining the integrity of children’s area that would create their own private space.In response to these principles, the function, structure and form of the building was created in three independent but compatible levels.

9

The first level embraces public spaces, both for street children and residents of Moshi. Functions located on the ground floor attract people of all ages and social groups creating a meeting place for a dialogue and mutual inspiration.

The second level is designated for street children. Located on the open raised platform, it gives them sense of security and privacy , while maintaining direct contact with surrounding environment and the society.

The third level constitutes a system of water towers. Water towers are the permanent element of the structure that connects two previous zones into one coherent whole. They create a structural basis for other elements while bringing shade and providing permanent access to water.

FLOOR STRUCTURE:Adopted solutions in the project derive directly from its function at the same time respecting the culture and traditions of Tanzania

The competition proposal was to redefine the concept of memorials. Focusing on the life of a loved one rather than their point of death, the created place aims to bring to mind positive experiences and emotions.This place is manifested as an open-air library - a collection of books, movies and music that are dedicated to deceased people, allowing their personal preferences and interests to be shown. It is a personal tribute to anyone regardless their contribution to society. Not a place of collective memory, but a collection of individual memories that create the place.In contrast to traditional monuments, and as a reflection of life itself, it is a place that is in constant change and constitutes both a very personal way of creating memories and a treasure trove for the public.

19

The physical articulation of the library refers to a classic historic memorial type - the arch, a form of a gate as a symbol for transition. To avoid the feeling of a monumental and overwhelming volume, this image is broken down to several small arches.

The new building of the Embassy subordinates in terms of urban local quarters building structure. Continuing the northern frontage of the Unter den Linden in accordance with the existing system, interior of the new quarter is clearly defined, closing it from the south and the east with these wings building. Interior of a quarter is elevated to the level of the first floor provides a garden reception, which in its form and direct

connection with the building creates a great fulfilment of the embassy. Enclosed from the hustle and bustling Unter den Linden offers tranquility and peace, and at the same time, by a sufficiently large dimensions can serve as an additional catalyst of cultural and social-life.

The new International Congress Centre in Katowice, recognisable as an important public building on the map of Katowice and of the Silesian conurbation, should not compete with a dominating form of the adjacent architectural icon of Spodek.

The requirements set to the Congress Centre are fulfilled in an abstract monolithic shape. The structure of the building has been founded on a sloping ground in a way to appropriately fill the void existing in this part of the city. At the same time it creates a series of new precisely defined public spaces. The building rises above the square transforming into a huge canopy, used primarily in the summertime to organise diverse outdoor events. A large atrium designed in the overhung part leads to the centre, where a raising square is continued in the form of successive foyer and lobbies.

The new building at first glance looks like a facility stationed here only temporarily, but in reality it has been skilfully integrated with the existing and future context

27

The internal spatial arrangement of the building is reflected outside its shape due to various intensities of the cover layer transparency. The perforated skin has been designed of prefabricated fibre concrete blocks. The degree of façade transparency is variable and in a specific area depends on the number and size of square openings.

In the chaotic urban tissue of Tallin, still expanding and focused on further developments, it is necessary that the form of academy building merge the surrounded urban cotext. The new academy respects the existing urban structure and through its purist and economical shape matches itself into disordered space acting as an integrator. The ground floor as well as the first undeground level that consist of public spaces acts as interface between the city life and the academy. The main atrium located on first level is designed as a natural continuation of public spaces placed below. The main building of the academy consists of four volumes related to four faculties. Although each of these academic units act independently, they are all connected and covered by the outer energetic envelope. The atrium created in between the volumes offers the common space for students of all faculties.

The chalet located in asutrian alps serves as a second house that is used mainly during a winter season. The property is set on a triangular plot on the slope with a beautiful view on the mountains. Main entrance of the house leads to the middle level of the three storey building. Two top floors contain main living spaces organized around the small patio. The patio provides light to the bottom level of the house which is partially located below the ground. The bottom floor accomodates extra bedrooms, spa area and a small living room with a kitchen. Thanks to the seperate entrance on that level the bottom spaces can be rented and used independently from the main spaces of the house.The structure of the house is made from the isulated concrete that serves both as construction and facade of the building. The board shuttering reflects the tectonics of the old traditional wooden chalets.

37

The main volume of the villa is dictated by a shape of the plot and strict austrian building regulations. The extended study of that volume was made in terms of required spaces, views and local architecture. The final shape of the villa is a contemporary interpretation of a traditional mountain house.
