The design transforms the area into a barrier-free residential street, where pedestrians, cyclists, and cars share the same level. This creates a natural urban parterre that encourages social interaction and strengthens neighborhood relationships. The study also includes a proposal for a multigenerational park with a playground, a fire pit, and seating areas. The traffic solution emphasizes calming, clear intersections, and safe connections to the city center.

The area is located in a quiet residential neighborhood surrounded by greenery, just a few minutes from Humpolec’s center. Semi-detached houses with gardens, trees planted by residents themselves, and a strong sense of community give the locality its unique character. The design builds on these values. Instead of radical transformation, it opts for subtle refinement — a clearer street layout, safer traffic solutions, more greenery, and a natural connection between private and public spaces.

The project is based on the principles of blue-green infrastructure — infiltration areas, retention tanks, and new tree planting naturally manage rainwater and improve the neighborhood’s microclimate. The result is an environment that is sustainable, aesthetically pleasing, and resilient to climate challenges.

The revitalization of Lipová–Hybešova–Rumunská has become an example of how participation and architecture can go hand in hand. The city gained high-quality data for the next phases of design, architects received valuable on-site insights, and residents gained confidence that the transformation of their neighborhood is happening with respect — not imposed from above, but developed together with them. Humpolec thus demonstrates that urban planning can be open, sensitive, and human-centered.
