The premises proposed consist of an administration building and a residence building for hosted animals. For the accommodation of the hosted animals, it was proposed to create two identical buildings with 20 individual living spaces, each, and an identical autonomous, four individual living quarters for sick animals.

In the building will be organized the functions of offices, animal clinic and meal preparation, an animal bath area, sanitary areas (wc and changing rooms) and storage areas. The building is constructed of reinforced concrete, the walls are made of brickwork, while the internal walls are constructed of a dry building system with drywall. Around the building, a pedestrian corridor will be constructed made of cast industrial floor, 1.5 m wide.

The accommodation building for hosted animals will be prefabricated, rectangular in plan, where 20 animal accommodation areas are organized. It is proposed to construct two identical buildings placed in parallel, with a free corridor between them 4.00 m wide. A total of 40 animal living quarters emerged.

It was also proposed to construct an autonomous building, of similar construction, but with a smaller number of living spaces (4 animal living spaces) to serve sick animals. The patient animal residence building will be placed between the main dormitories and the Administration building, near the clinic, to better serve and partially isolate these animals.

The animal housing buildings will be protected with special fencing, internal perimeter planting and a single green area for outdoor sports.

The entrance to the site is at a distance from the local road, 80.00 m. In the surrounding area it is planned to create a car park. Around the plot, on the sides of the roads, a green area of 1.50 m is left for the organization of pavement and planting. The plot is fenced around the perimeter, while a double planting array is created inside the fence.
