The Interrupted Continuum - Arsenal Memory Park

Idea projektu

A memory device and structural interruption that transforms a place of terror into a beacon of memory, functioning as a spatial commentary, structural metaphor, landscape intervention, civic monument, and preserved archive.

Popis projektu

The project for the Arsenal Memory Park uses six key design strategies: The Scar (angled and linear cuts, narrow walkways, void and complete spaces), The Broken Monolith (partially open with alternative placement of blocks and wind corridors where spaces between buildings are as important as rooms themselves), The Lantern of Truth (strategically using light to create a dark submerged exhibition area leading to a towering light-filled concert hall and memory plaza), The Inverted Pyramid, The Weight of Silence (a massive gravity-defying cantilever extending 30+ meters over an immersive showroom with translucent structure that glows at night like a lantern), and The Excavated Path. Preserved buildings remain untouched, frozen in time, with new architecture placed at a respectful offset of 3-5 meters away, connected via glass bridges and thin connectors with no heavy foundations nearby.
