NPAK
Armenian Center for Contemporary Experimental Arts / Competition Entry
For this competition, we had to work with an architectural object receded from the street and locked between neighboring buildings, not allowing for a pedestrian flow around the structure. Its massiveness and scarcity of openings created a beautiful pure shape at the cost of heaviness, uninviting at ground level, closed and hidden from the city. We also faced placing new complex functions into existing structures, challenging existing floor areas, while trying to preserve much of the existing complex.
