VERTICAL MULTIFUNCTIONAL CENTER
CULTURAL CENTER
Project topic is to reactivate recognized but temporarily paused area of the power plant “Power and Light”. Since the area is defined as negative pause in all aspects (urban – spatial, functional and visually – psychological), reactivation of all aspects will redefine it to a positive – active pause. Power plant represents cultural property, thus through reactivation process special emphasis is given to that respect. Founding the Cultural centre in this area will transform it to active, flexible and multi-functional space, with diverse repertoires. With its location, object (naturally) communicates and presents the power plant. Cultural Centre consists of two parts: Cultural and tourist centre (presenting culture as art and the way of living –socialization) and Cultural and historical centre (museum and educational section representing power plant). Reactivation of this space will boost the social and cultural awareness and bring industrial culture as well as culture in general, much closer to the public.
