Rotterdam-based practice BUBE has shared with us their third-place winning proposal in the Classic Siftung Weimar international competition for the New Bauhaus Museum. Three translucent cubes are clustered together in an effort to maximize open space and reorganize the site with a focus of intensifying the interactions between park and museum visitors. BUBE’s proposal is one of the final four designs still competing. The jury is expected to announce the winning design this summer. More images and architects’ description after the break.
Positioned at the edge of the historic center of Weimar and in the immediate vicinity of the former Gauforum, the convention centre and the Weimarhallen Park, the site holds an opportunity to reorganize and improve the public space in this area. Therefore one of the aims of the design is to extend the park towards the north and to create generous openings to Karls-Liebknecht Street and towards the residential area in the north side.
