HOUSE — use real apartments as a construction experiment

Křídlovická 68–80 is unusually literal evidence of architecture as testing. Brno Architecture Manual dates the experimental houses to 1958–1961 and documents multiple construction experiments, including a block built with cast-in-place concrete. The goal was not only to make housing quickly. Designers and builders were testing structural systems and apartment arrangements against new ideas about how households were expected to live. That turns the residents' everyday building into a full-scale prototype. Look along the repeated blocks and remember that 'experimental' here was not a later critic's label. Experiment was part of the assignment. Domestic normality was produced through construction research at one-to-one scale.
