The Contemporary Museum building is to be situated in a premium location within the city’s historical old town, in a vicinity of existing museums and monuments. The neighboring landscape is strongly marked by gothic and modernist architecture surrounded by parks.

The Museum will house an exceptional collection of acknowledged contemporary art, but its main goal is to create a dynamic ecosystem of cultural exchange reaching beyond the traditional idea of an art exhibition.

Wroclaw is a rapidly developing city (pop. 700.000) with a strong cultural and economic background, and multinational history. It is situated in southwestern part of Poland (3hrs drive from both Berlin and Prague), and is one of Poland’s largest and richest cities.

Mountain Shelter, Lubań
This building follows the slope to the north, descending almost to the bottom of the valley to the level of the tent base. As the slope rises slightly to the west, it was possible to meet the provisions of the plan with the height relative to the surrounding area, despite the design of four storeys.

The investor had his own vision of the interior arrangement with the living area on the first floor. Additionally, he wanted to place a house in the middle of the plot, far away from the river, where a marina was supposed to be.
