HIDDEN EXPOSITION

Type

Cultural › Hall/Theater

The
composition concerns the façade of a public theatre as well as the square in
front of it, situated in Corfu Island. The synthetic process is
orientated towards the re-emergence of the Public Theatre as a city landmark,
emphasizing not only on its past but also on its attributes as a piece of
contemporary architecture.
The
architectural intervention attempts to confront the present state of general
social disapproval towards the public theatre through the formation of a visual
exaltation. This attempt is organized as a vocabulary of architectural choices
which aims to the integration of the building to the function of the city.

Taking
advantage of the adaptation abilities of contemporary architectural morphology,
the composition attempts to provide the elements of a direct relationship
between the city and the building.
As
a result of that relationship a dynamic public space is produced, capable of
enriching the symbolic capital of the city through the introduction of a
multitude of urban experiences in an urban landscape already chromed by memory.
