Transylvania Pavilion - Skanzen
Szentendre, Hungary
STATUS
Built
YEAR
2022
SIZE
1000 sqft - 3000 sqft
GATE OF TRANSYLVANIA
Our challenge was to design an extraordinary "landmark object" for the new exhibition area of the Open Air Muesum of Ethnography. The museum's mission is to represent the traditional Hungarian architecture and folk art. The new area of the museum is dedicated to Transylvania. The role of the new cinema-pavilion is to host a panorama movie about Transylvania. Visitors have to cross this cinema, as a special gate to enter the "Transylvania area". The newly built and rebuilt architectural collection from different parts of Transylvania contains special exhibitions to introduce history and minorities. The cinema-pavilion is also a symbol of the new and innovative exhibitions and the progressive approach that the museum used to renew the genre of the "skanzen". We formulated the volume of the building, like a sculpture, when we answered on the adjacent "old" buildings, their sharp edges and white surfaces. It was rather a compositional challenge first of all, with emphasizing the contrast between old and new, light and darkness, traditions and progressivity. Beside the extreme location and size of the project, we needed to find the ways to connect the hilltop with the underground pedestrian tunnel. The result became on one hand very honest and functional with uncovered solutions in the lower level with utility spaces, info point, stairs and elevator, on the other the complex became very artistic with the levitating, playful shape with the magical interior of the movie on the upper level. The dynamic form of the cinema building is compensated with a simple and delicate black metal cover. This custom made, linear-web structure of the cladding accentuates the form’s edges and makes the experience tactile and more human. The museum’s new symbol was born with fulfilling the challenge of the project.
Transylvanian traditions and heritage with futuristic solutions for new generations.
