2023 Іnternational Architecture Competition | Reinterpreting the Space
Architecture competition Reinterpreting the Space is looking for conceptual ideas for the revitalization of the historical space of the Potocki Palace complex in Ivano-Frankivsk (Ukraine) with the creation of a public cultural space.
Task:
To adapt the complex open territory into a public space with multiple functions, preserving the existing historically formed structure.
The territory for developing conceptual proposals is divided into 3 parts and does NOT include buildings:
- Transformative multifunctional central open public space
- Semi-open architectural space with connection between buildings
- staff space
Proposed revitalization principles:
- variability of the space thereby it can be easily transformed to provide an individual, personal stay as well as social connections;
- Preservation of the historically formed territory structure and the spirit of the place (genius loci);
- Zoning of the territory by the formed ensemble structure and the developed concept of revitalization and development of the complex;
- binding the spaces in «the backyard» together along the perimeter using pavilion and landscape architecture, covering structures and transformative architectural structures;
- Creation of semi-open spaces between the buildings to provide a comfortable passageway and communication taking into account protection from atmospheric influences and all-season complex operation;
- organization of the multifunctional mobile open space within the central part of the park complex territory;
- Safety of visitors due to the possible Russian missile strikes.
