... Complex for sport and recreation ...near the north pole in Anadir, Russia ... freezing idea but possible as it may not sound !!!
... Building in extreme conditions, as north pole, has completely changed my approach to the theme. The desicion was to make a group of buildings to represent a hearth (evoking the traditional house "Iranga"), a fireplace surounded by 3 volumes in strong interaction. Considering the general huge house distance in the city, I made a concept of connecting people and making family atmosphere on the site, unique condesator of cultural, sport and other social activities, as well as commercial ones.
... egg-shapped volumes are enlightened from above along the ring to make an impression of flying building - visual effect possible due to the white reflection of 8 months long lasting snow cover (during the whole winter period) !!!
... communication between volumes faced on each other to make an architectural unity... attention is given to a visitor approaching the complex as well as singular paths in between the buildings and on relation in-outside
... the funny part of the whole project is this !!! : ) I was following the visitor path from landing in Anadir to his arrival at the final destination, sport centre
... enjoy this journey to the north pole : )
