Description
Summary:The design and development of the Center for Ecology and Sports Development and the Red Cross of Kosovo and Metohija introduced a new solution to the problem of protection and management of part of Gazivode Lake shore, an area of national importance. The uniqueness of the complex is reflected in its multi-functionality, which basically consists of water protection and monitoring, education, humanitarian activities, sports and recreational facilities and underwater research, all located within the exceptional ambience of Gazivode Lake. The architecture of the buildings, characterized by regional tradition and its specific ecological purpose contribute to the impression of a careful fitting into the artifacts of the environment, which makes up the unity of nature and the layered cultural and historical heritage. With the final realization, the newly-built complex justified the basic conceptual starting-points of the authors according to their statement, which are finding the character of the place, discovering the potential of a wider context and harmony.
