Project description

The Architecture of Cultural Heritage project is a concept for the creation of a modern cultural and leisure center in Petrozavodsk, which will become a center of attraction for tourists and local residents. The main idea of the project is to integrate the symbols of Karelia — an eight-pointed star and fir trees — into the architectural design of the facade of the building. These elements will not only emphasize the uniqueness of the region, but also become a visual symbol that contributes to increasing interest in the cultural heritage of Karelia. The center will include multifunctional halls for exhibitions, workshops and events, as well as cafes with Karelian cuisine. Within the framework of the project, it is planned to organize various cultural events, such as exhibitions, festivals and educational programs aimed at preserving and popularizing Karelian traditions. It is expected that the implementation of the project will lead to an increase in the tourist flow to Petrozavodsk, strengthen local identity and actively involve residents in the cultural life of the city.

Advice to students

cultural and leisure center in Petrozavodsk

Dear Liana Pantsoulaya, I appreciate your idea of ​​preserving cultural heritage through a design that highlights symbols and their relationship to architecture. We hope this will improve the living environment and establish a distinct architectural identity that attracts tourists and local residents. I congratulate you on your creative approach to design, which can be summarized in three axes: The first axis discusses the meaning of symbols and symbolism. The second axis embodies symbolism in architecture. The third axis includes a review of an example from the local environment, with the aim of highlighting a range of architectural ideas and elements that can be adapted into design proposals to convey meaningful meanings. From my perspective, the handicrafts and craftsmanship of local residents can be employed in interior architectural spaces to enhance their economic status and strengthen their sense of belonging. I wish you continued success and prosperity.
