PUBLIC PARK IS A PUBLIC SUCCESS

20 Apr 2017


ENOTA has received recognition for their dynamic public park and garden in the Slovenian city of Velenje. Check out some of the impressive landscaping work here.



The award-winning garden park from ENOTA features a stunning display of angular steps and terraces lines along the banks of a shallow waterway. The area comes together to form a leisurely promenade at the heart of Velenje, Slovenia. The Promenada as the area is known has a wealth of history and was originally designed in the 1950s in the modernist tradition of the garden city.





As a hub of the city already, ENOTA renovated the civic space to kick off a wider revitalisation of the city centre. "Its tasks are to supply the city with the missing programs and to help it reclaim its original character of a town-in-a-park," said the firm.

Aiming to add both greenery and events spaces to the area, either side of the River Paka. The landscaping was planned to open up its banks and draw more attention to the fast-flowing stream.

"The River Paka is a torrential river, which means that its watercourse swells up significantly a few times a year, but remains relatively shallow at all other times," said ENOTA.

"As a consequence, the riverbed is very deep and until now, the river – which is an attractive element of any city – flowed out of sight somewhere down below."

Angular stone terraces that vary in height and depth create pathways beside the water. Smaller steps form an amphitheater for public performances, or relaxing in the sun. In addition, the existing bridge connecting the two river banks was replaced by a narrower structure that sits off-perpendicular to the waterway.

Paths emanate from the centre to connect the surrounding buildings and streets. In between are grassy areas with exaggerated mounds, and plazas dotted with trees and sculptural benches.

"The river may once again claim an important spot in the townspeople's consciousness," the architects said.

The Promenada Velenje was completed in 2014 and won in the Public Park category at the 2016 A+Awards.
