New Belgrade residential+cultural facilities
New Belgrade Blocks scheme is orthogonal, but studied closely there is certain dynamic in composition of given block. Specific about the given block is that this square block has triangular leftovers at diagonal ends, and those are the parts that bring dynamic into space, and typology. Program was constructed around the idea of current and past programs that happen(d) in this block as well as the one surround it. The location had a small cultural center that was really the center of all major week happening that is closed. Also nearby is student dormitory. After study of age and number of residents, their occupations and needs the following program was to give a new social dynamic and diversity to this block and its surroundings. It is a dormitory for guest researcher at the Belgrade University and a New Cultural Center, a spot for exchange and meeting through architecture and space.
Object is positioned so that it triggers the same dynamic as the one build 40 years ago at the opposite end of the block. Design and its proportions are delicate. Orientation of the object is such that the living facilities are facing south, and working north. As these units are for visiting students/researchers, public part of Cultural Center of New Belgrade is emerging in between them, and in that way it is communicating with its residents and at the same time it is changing typology of the living units. Whole object is a well thought machine that needs force to start processing and producing a happening.
