The Polish firm, Mariusz Wrzeszcz Office, has submitted their recent project, the Center for Promotion of Science in Belgrade for our readers. The architects description and additional images are available after the break.
A circle interrupts the rigidity and uniformity of the square grid. The fragmentation is challenged The block 39 is an entity: a perimeter with a disk. A fluid continuum that embraces and defends the integrity of the center. It is a world apart but still a part of the bigger whole, a transition line and an interior, in contrast but not opposed to the exterior. Infiltration is vital to the accomplishment of the center. The perimeter has no beginning and no end, it gives no preference, unifies and enables the flow of movement in,around and within.The disk is the soul defined by the body. The circle enabled by the new buildings that emerge is stimulated by the constant flow into, through and within. The center for the promotion of science – a circular segment – a piece cut of by a chord, the perimeter but already the disk, a presence that gives possibility, provokes movement, provokes thought. Formally, it is defined by the shape, to which it shall give its essence.
