Reconstruction of the main Cheb Boulevard

The linearity by the street front of the firm restricted space of the main city boulevard has been negated designedly. In the course of it the anomalies have been emphasized, there is a change of atmospheres, scales, geometric order and chaos, materials, ways of re-vegetation and lighting. The pulsating non-linear concept is simultaneously an analogy of the city history the continuity of which has been interrupted by the transfer of the original

inhabitants at the end of the World War II. The only linear motive is a metal “demogram”, the band with the names of all Cheb citizens at the turn of the millennium. The band is culminating in the restored dominant accenting the ending of the pedestrian precinct on the historical square.
