Empfangsgebäude „Mitoseum“ im Saurierpark Kleinwelka

Description

The primordial cell and the mitosis are the architect’s plan. The primordial cell and its division as the origin of life constitute the allegorized architect’s plan for the entrance building of the theme park. Borrowed from nature, the process of the mitosis is both project idea and role model for the filigree construction and shaping which is in tune with nature. In this context, bionic borrowings visualize the evolution of life.

Statement of the jury

This primordial cell-inspired, iconic building is notable for the impact it creates from a distance – an effect that is every bit as powerful close up. The transparency of the building’s architecture creates an exciting connection between the interior and exterior, whose futuristic design aesthetic transports the observer to a different era.
