concept
All the construction based on the idea of the division into personal and public area, i.e. all the spaces of the building develop vertically, from the ones of public value to those of personal value, with the latter located upstairs. ln a whole, the building is constructed in the following way.
All internal spaces are arranged inside the building as separate hanging structures, with different functional zones arranged. These blocks form an atrium, which performs the function of a binding element between different zones.
The cluster principle of key spaces and blocks layout provides an important level of privacy for visitors and at the same time serves to the integration of their activities into the general cultural context of the space.
