About Be Amphitheatre Aire Zabaleko Ekitaldi Espazioa

Gizarte orok behar du suaren inguruan esertzeko, hitz egiteko, ikusteko eta bere burua adierazteko espazioa. Antzokia bilkura esanguratsuetarako eta hitzaldietarako leku bihurtu da, Varsoviako zona honen ikur berria eta aldaketarako eragilea. Eraikuntza moderno honek ikuspegi berria ematen die ezagutzen ditugun gauzei. Aire zabaleko eszena hau Varsoviako negozio-barrutiak pairatzen duen eskaera bati aurre egiteko sortu zen: espazio publiko eta irekien eskasia, hesirik gabeak, aire zabalean bilerak informalak eta adeitsuak egiteko aukera ematen dutenak. Eraikin honen azken forma antzoki klasikoaren formula eta eremu berdearen arteko uztardura da.

Unique Properties: Every society needs space to sit by the campfire, to talk, to listen, to see, and express oneself. Brain Embassy Amphitheatre does precisely that for Warsaw. We want it to become the place of meaningful gatherings and speeches, a new symbol for this part of Mokotow, and fuel for change. Through this modern construct, we siphon our philosophy, search for a new angle to things already known.
Dimensions & Packaging: Open space in public space
Tags: concrete, warsaw, poland, event, architecture, outdoor
Production Technology: The final shape of this building is a match made out of the classical formula of amphitheater and green zones, so desperately needed in this part of town. The object is inscribed into a circle, covered by the massive, glass filled - concrete roof, supported by the powerful, ferroconcrete wall.

Over and around the auditorium goes the characteristic, monumental concrete ring encircling both concrete/englassed roof as well as grass-covered hill by the street. It was carefully placed as such, at this specific angle to allow for s seamless transition of the landscape into the auditorium.
Design Challenge: The implementation of the outdoor stage project shows that even private investments can be focused on improving the quality of public space. In the private area, a completely open space was created, intended for everyone without restrictions. In addition to the entertainment and event function, a multifunctional, large playground was also created, open to all residents.

Inspiration: Amphitheatre is the open, democratic space dedicated to holding interesting meet-ups and performance arts, that would be easily accessible for each and every tenant and employees of the Sluzewiec business sector. Outdoor scene rose to face the demand that haunts Warsaw business district - lack of open and public spaces, free of fences, allowing for casual, friendly meetings out in the open.
Project Duration: COMPLETION:September 2020
LOCATION: ul. Konstruktorska 11, Warsaw, Poland
Operation Flow: Thanks to the amphitheater, it was possible to create a place to support the local community. The immediate vicinity is an office area devoid of public space and places for recreation and integration. The new space allowed for the organization of events for the residents of the district, and created an intimate space for children and youth. It also serves the employees of the surrounding office buildings. It allows you to organize yoga classes and open lectures.
