Architectural concept
• Discovering and interpretation of the original architecture (Renaissance to the 19th century)
• Rehabilitation of the universal layout of the house (determination of the main, secondary and service rooms) so that it can withstand possible operational changes
• Functional solution divided by floors (bottom - basement, boarding, social, office, gallery)
• Significant improvement of construction and technical condition (floors, truss, roof)
• Preservation of the existing long-term function on the ground floor (tea room) and creation of its facilities in the completion.
• The silver line of the house in connection with the mining of silver and the silver film screen
