Piața Universității Public Space Competition

 
For the public space competition in front of the Bucharest University we envisioned a fluid space in which space and circulation flows model a artificial landscape. We used Grasshopper and Kangaroo to relax a stiffened gemetry resulted from the flow lines of the existing space. The long space adressing the main boulevard and the University facade is interseted by a main gate towards the old city center creating a void that pulls space. This idea is translated into a geometry that follows this pattern and develops into a disposition of elements in the square that take function as needed: green space, sitting space, space divider, but never interruping a circulation flow.
