Prague wants to have a new concert hall, students can design it
In the 14th year, the competition is the same: Design of a national concert building – Vltava Philharmonic with the subtitle What form could the new architectural landmark of Prague look like?
Some students will come up with the same good or even better design for those who do not want to take part in the international architectural competition, which is intended to go this year. Oekv is one of the world’s best architectural studios. It is necessary not only to build the Vltava Philharmonic in the holes of Holeovice, but also its surroundings – about 160 hectares, where there is, for example, a kiovatka, wall and a protective metro.
There are similar buildings in the world to the striking architectural symbols of the city, including Hamburg’s Elbphilharmonie as well as the Portuguese Casa da Msica and many others. Jan Kaplick designed the concert slRejnok for the Czech Budjovice.
A huge challenge
The student received inspiring ideas on how to involve the Vltava Philharmonic building in the slots of the chosen city. Students should write an inspiring idea of urban-architectural concept of the appearance of a new national concert building.
The building can fill a really large round, it should give these cities a completely new look, bringing them into our cultural life.
The building of the Vltava Philharmonic should be very dldn and ptelsk. It must be an extraordinary cultural building, which will cover various social gatherings and activities for 24 hours a day, to the architect Josef Pleskot, who as the Association for the Construction of a New Concert Service in Prague and only the Association for Architecture and Development the establishment of the Philharmonic has been supporting for a number of years and your competitions will be offered in your studio.
The concert will be built at the metro station C Vltavsk.
The building should transform the entire Vltava area delimited from the south by the Vltava River, from the entrance by the Negrelli Viaduct, from the fall by the building of the former Dopravní podnik hl. m from Prague and from the northern metro station Vltavsk.
In such a limited space, the upper and lower Holeovice should be connected and connected with the Czech Republic and blended with the whole Prague panorama and its historical dominants, added the architect Pleskot with the idea that a public space should be created, which will become part of the Prague center.
By connecting with the Vltava, it builds on the tradition of locally significant public buildings by the river. The Philharmonic Orchestra should have a main concert hall, several other smaller, multi-room rooms, a main entrance foyer, an ensemble and spaces for additional cultural educational functions. The total gross floor area should not exceed 50,000 m2.
Vltavsk as a new architectural landmark
The last competition is to write an open debate on the form of this extremely important building with an emphasis on the connection with the Vltava. In Prague, a large cultural public building, which has a huge potential, mistakes. It is necessary to create a new symbol of the Czech musical tradition and a new architectural landmark of the city.
For any architect, including those of the future, one of the greatest challenges is to consider the important cultural buildings, to which the building of the Philharmonic is undoubtedly one. Of course, students cannot deal with the complex issues of such a complex background, but let us echo from them a fresh idea that can revive the debate about the murder of such a single round, to the main architect of the Central Group Libor Monhart.
Vtzov shared 175 thousand crowns
The proposals will be evaluated by an expert jury led by the historian of architecture Zdek Lukee. The main criteria of the competition are the originality of the design, the complex architectural design, the creative and graphic level of the design and clarity. He will receive a financial reward of 100 thousand crowns and thus stay in the prestigious architectural studio AP Atelier Josefa Pleskot. The second best proposal will be awarded 50 thousand and the city 25 thousand crowns.
Last year students worked on the actual preparation of the project in Prague. In a round, they were to design the appearance of five sections of an apartment building in our residential area in the current Westpoint complex in Prague 6, where Central Group is planning to build a unique project with more than two thousand apartments and a number of shops, services, restaurants and cafes. Vtze was waiting for the architect Pavel Hnilika.
In Hamburg, there is the Elbphilharmonie (Elbe Philharmonic), a gigantic glass thumb including a concert hall, a hotel, a restaurant and other spaces.
The biggest benefit for us was to look into the day of the studio and find out how the studio works and how the work is divided among colleagues. A great deal of income was the gain of new experience with software, such as last year’s students, BUT students Pavel Hanouskov and Ondej eli.
During your time in the architectural office Pavel Hnilika Architects + Planners, you worked on two urban-architectural projects.
Students of full-time study (bachelor’s or master’s degree) of the university in the field of architecture and related fields, both construction and art, can take part in the competition. They may register their work in accordance with the same conditions and until 31 January of that year. Vtzov will then be excavated in burrow 2022. Details a You can find the current conditions here.
