The organization of the multi-program center Superšiška is determined by three spatial parameters: extending the built space on the land into the interior of the area in question, the horizontal exterior space of the Mezzanine with intertwined green Patios and the vertical interior of the Atrium.
Superšiška center is a compact mass. The program is distributed vertically and horizontally - the various activities of the center are distributed one above the other. The tendency toward as much daylight exposure as possible fragments an otherwise compact mass.
Superšiška is not a megastructure, nor a compositional ensemble of independent objects arranged into a more or less complete plan. Superšiška is an Urban Graft, an extract of urban tissue from downtown set in a suburban area at the edge of town.
It is a technique where we implement the structural, organizational and spatial principles of an urban area into an area that has not yet adopted these characteristics. We presume that the inlay will generate new spatial and psychological situations in a new area.
Superšiška is an example of light urbanism. Its parameters are defined by the effects of spatial situations. The horizontal space of the rising Mezzanine is closed by the vertical interior Atrium - the central interior space of the multi-program structural mass which rises from the avenue into the interior of the area. |
