Convalaria Building, Brno
The Convalaria Building is yet another design of the architect Oskar Poříska. It got its name from the perfume shop that was originally located on the ground floor. Both façades of the building represent the typical overview of a commercial building of functionalist architecture – big windows and straight angles.
