The D1 has developed pump designs, recharges electric cars and shields noise
The pump combines two full-fledged projects, and at first glance it is obvious that they are different from those who go every step of the way.
During the construction, emphasis was placed on the architectural form and design of the exterior and interior. Behind the project is the studio A32 – architect Ivan Kol with his collaborators.
According to the investor, Pumpa is the first design filling station in the Czech Republic, and it also serves as a noise barrier for residential construction in Prhonice.
The original rear created a pumping station, which will be located at the common noise barrier. But we wanted to drink with a friend of the surroundings. We have therefore designed a whole building, which meets the original conditions, but at the same time enriches its surroundings and is open not only to the debtor, but also to the municipality. We wanted to show that such a substantial building as a gas station with a restaurant can be considered differently, describes Ivan Kol.
We had in mind that the people would forget that they were at the debtor’s office, and that they would sit in a pleasant environment, eat time and charge your electric car in the meantime, added FrantiĊĦek lingr, for the investor, Imoba, only the board.
The pump with its ten charging stations became the largest charging city on the D1. The stations are operated by the EZ Group and six of them guarantee a power of 50 kW and even 180 kW.
The Pump can be entered from the other side, from the Prhonick area. In such a case, the guest enters the restaurant, which contains a total of 119 seats.
At the same time, we wanted to build a full-fledged restaurant, where people from the Prihonice hills and the surrounding area will enjoy eating. These are two concepts linked into one, lingr explains.
The space of the restaurant is graceful in green, thanks to the guests easily forget that it is located just a meter from the longest dormitory in the Czech Republic.
The restaurant is divided into a bar and grill bar, in which there are available meat and other grilled dishes throughout the day. The bite of the building is also its own bakery, which provides the Fresh Bar with fresh beer throughout the day.
