PAG - Pracownia Architektury Głowacki

The main assumption of this project was ist functionality - creating art lab with workshops freely adapting to the artists' needs. Transparency of the building helps to achieve that idea. It ensures optimal, two-sided insulation of all studios and creates ideal conditions for art formation and exposition, while establishing a connection with the spectator - an accidental passer-by at the same time. Glass facades create optical openings into the existing garden of the Academy, thus the interior is filled with light and greenery. The existing garden was a starting point of the whole project. Its values are unique in this part of the city and are significant not only to the Academy, but also to the adjacent Social Square. The designed building strictly organizes the existing quarter and closely surrounds the garden. Its clear, solid form becomes the main feature of the plot.
