Object:<\/strong><\/p>\n

One of three historicist fa\u00e7ades covering a block of flats built as part of the post-war reconstruction of Gda\u0144sk. In 2015, the fa\u00e7ade underwent a major refurbishment under the \u2018Gda\u0144skie Fasady OdNowa\u2019 project that aimed to improve the quality of public spaces in G\u0142\u00f3wne Miasto by adding architectural decoration to existing buildings.<\/p>\n

The three-axis fa\u00e7ade gained decoration in the form of a two-storey painted Tw\u00f3j Salon sign located in the central axis between the first and second storeys.<\/p>\n

The decoration of the corner building is on the fa\u00e7ade facing Zbytki Street. The intervention field comprises the space of a standing rectangle, spanning from the frieze above the arcade to the frieze under eaves in the southern part of the exterior. The painting work shows, in an illusionistic manner, golden gears emerging from a dark background, referring to the Gda\u0144sk watchmaking traditions. An inscription Tomasz Kucharski\/ Kamil Lisek\/ 2015 is placed in the lower left corner of the composition. The fa\u00e7ade from Ogarna Street is topped with a triangular pediment, the building is situated ridge to ridge in relation to Zbytki Street.<\/p>\n

Place:<\/strong><\/p>\n

The buildings are in an area designated as a heritage site. They form part of the historic urban layout of the city of Gda\u0144sk. Ogarna Street was destroyed in 1945 during the war. It was rebuilt on the basis of the so-called Zachwatowicz plan that envisaged the reconstruction of historical forms, which was only feasible in the form of a workers\u2019 housing estate. The erected block of flats was covered by a historicist fa\u00e7ade screen. The buildings thus created were the result of combining two houses into a complex with a common staircase, an entrance from the courtyard and an even top line of windows emphasising the block-like nature of the premise. The elevations were not completed with architectural decoration.<\/p>\n
