Directed with respect for all views and spatial elements of the incredible energized given space, the concept for the Beton Hala Waterfront by Pero Vukovic, in collaboration with Branka Vukovic, becomes a zone of overlap of the two natural barriers, park/forest (Kalemegdan) and the rivers Sava and Danube, where a huge value of the area belongs to their confluence. More images and architects’ description after the break.
The historical and spatial specificity of the competition area introduces the scale and content of the old town (Kalemegdan) and it’s past. The existing on-site building, Beton Hala, is a simple, unobtrusive modernist warehouse building built between 1936 and 1937 whose natural interaction with the environment gives the space a unique label and a unified experience.
