LocationWarsaw: city center

Destructions during warConstruction of Palace of Culture in 1955
Pre-war architetcure and densityBuilings on the exact design location
Current situation
Current park
Master plan for city centerUnderlines Palace axisNo connection with the park (across the street)
Question 1How to create in th epark - the feeling of intimacy and peacefulness without losing the enormous open space?How to turn emptiness and experience of length and distance into quality?
ProcessExploring scale of the plot and palace by modelsExploring possible volume scale and shape
Frame in the cityThe idea of oasis: enclosing a place in the city which provides completely different experience than can be found around
Step 1: enclosing the park with the wallExclusive experience, without interruptions, chaos and noise of the city. Behind the wall - experience of discovery, mistery, curiosity.
Step 2: excavating the area of parkConnection to metro and the Old museum. The idea of skipping the city.Experience of isolation even stronger.
Park sectionsPalace of Culture height: 230 mMuseum lenght: 360 m
Question 2What should be the relation of the builing with wall?
Exploring different location and shape of the museum builingConclusions: - volume that will underline length- that will not interfere with experiencing the distance
Exploring the relation between building and the wall
Underlining the experience of length Breaking the symmetry and underlining the long perspective
Placing the builing in the south wall
Visual connection with the PalaceUnderlining the length by creating long volumeDetaching the volume from the wall to strenghten the experience of the wall
Question 3How to introduce spatial variety in long and very narrow volume?
Exploring long perspective in the interiorsExperience of length in the interior or exterior?
Spatial variety By changing interior heights - keeping visual connections
Spatial variety By changing interior heights - keeping visual connections
Spatial variety By changing colour and material
Spatial variety By changing colours and materials
Spatial variety By changing lighting conditions
Spatial variety By changing colours and materials
ConclusionsWhat strenghtens the experience of length but also allows for spatial diversity: rhythm of repeating structural elements; visual or movement axis through the changing space
