The history of Strachotín, as we know it today, started yet before the year of 1300. Its urbanist structure remained relatively the same untill the 2nd third of the 18th century, nor did the number of houses change. The structure of the main square has been conserved in its original form. The important solitary buildings standing in the centre of the main square were the buildings of the Municipal House and the former School, the social services house nowadays (library, physician, hairstylist, post office). By gradually adding technical facilities and warehouses that have grown into an extended construction with residential units and a pub, all of them carried out on top of the original Municipal House, the result is a „cluster“ of virtually zero architectural and urbanist qualities. The consequential effect brings diminishing of the significance of the town centre as a common place – res publica. The main square ought to be understood as a central point of the town, a meeting point, a place for reunions. A place of information exchange, sharing and confrontation of various opinions. My objective has been to keep the current range of services offered and bring back the town´s lost identity and symbolics. Buildings constructed at the centre of the main square often carry a solitary character and Strachotín is therefore no exception. I consider this aspect as an essential one. The key feature has been splitting the functions and a convenient interconnectedness of the businesses within. The need for a new hall and a space for the community life has been put to life in the form of a building added to the former school, where now you can find an open complex of a community house, including an information centre, library, a club-room and services, such as the hairdressers´ and the physician´s office. I regard connecting the municipal hall and the pub together as the most convenient/ effective solution within the Municipal House. I have marked three functional areas within the public space of the main square by respecting the two current solitary buildings. The centre is represented by the „piazzetta“ - the paved area, I have conserved the park-like feature of the southern part with its grassy area, and for the northern part, I have proposed a orchard layout of the area including a childrens´ playground.
