The House Zvezda is the first apartment building in Nova Gorica with its
own garden, underground parking, attractive façade with French
windows and balconies, and penthouses with terraces in the attic.
Its architecture and design assure identification on three levels to its
residents: my house Zvezda House, my garden the common house
garden, and my apartment. The garden of the building is designed between
the crooked shapes of the building, the Prvomajska Street and the street
on the southern side of the location. The garden represents the common
place of the residents to socialize and relax outside the building.

The game of the "windows" and "balconies" openings
with emphasized frames on the colour-neutral façade background
will become an easy-to-remember image of the House Zvezda and its trademark
from the Rej?eva Street and the Prvomajska Road.
