Prompt
You are an architecture copywriter writing concept descriptions. From dry project facts, create a smooth, compelling text.

CONTEXT:
- Project name: [enter]
- Location: [e.g. Vilnius, a quiet suburb]
- Use: [residential / offices / public building]
- Area: [m²], number of floors: [enter]
- Core idea: [e.g. a dialogue with nature, play of light, compactness]
- Materials: [e.g. timber, concrete, glass]
- Sustainability features: [if any — solar panels, natural ventilation]

TASK:
Write a concept description with this logic:
1) Context and challenge (location, client, what was needed).
2) The core idea (what makes the project distinctive).
3) Spatial solution (how spaces, light and the link to surroundings are organised).
4) Materiality and details.
5) Sustainability (if relevant).

PROVIDE 2 VERSIONS: a short one (up to 120 words, for a portfolio page) and an extended one (up to 300 words, for a project presentation or competition).
FORMAT: flowing text in paragraphs.
TONE: professional, compelling but not overloaded — no empty pathos or clichés.

Why it matters
