THE CITIZEN’S REFUGE
Provocative project of Parade square in Warsaw
遊行廣場，雖然它實際上是對周圍開放的，但實際上生活在一個孤立的條件下，封閉在其區域內，並被建築物的屏障所包圍。人們對它的態度就像一座曾經意義重大的紀念碑一樣冷漠，但現在它太老了，無法適應新時代。這就是為什麼新的城市規劃將遊行廣場融入到城市的最新形象中，完全忽略了它對華沙意味著什麼，並可以繼續代表。
Parade Square,even though it is actually open towards the surrounding, in reality lives in a condition of isolation, confined in its area and surrounded by a barrier of buildings. It is treated with the same indifference of a monument that once was significant, but now it is too old to adapt to the new times.This is why the new urban plan of the area incorporates Parade Square into the newest image of a city, completely ignoring what it has meant for Warsaw, and can continue to represent.
但是，如果我們不尊重曆史，我們又是什麼呢？
But what are we, if we do not respect our history?
因此，在這個項目中，並沒有找到一個替代方案來強製廣場和城市之間的融合，而這顯然不僅僅取決於對廣場的研究，而是決定強調他的孤立，把它變成一個力量點。
For this, instead of finding an alternative solution on how to force integration between the square and the city, which evidently doesn’t depend only from the study of the square, with this project, it was decided to emphasize his isolation, turning it into a point of strength.
然後廣場被轉換成一個包含的區域，在牆的原型內，它維護並強調了它的紀念碑性和功能，創造了在這個城市區域中不存在的情況，強調了在未來城市中必須保存過去的重要性。
The square is then transformed into an included area,inside the archetype of the wall, which maintains and emphasizes its monumentality and its functions,and creates situations that were not present in this urban area,remarking the importance that has to preserve the past, in future cities.
在這一領域，你必須感到受到保護，靠近華沙的心髒，自由地表達自己，接受其內部機構的知識，如果有必要，也參加聚會，而不感到現代速度的喧囂和焦慮。
In this area you must feel protected,close to the heart of Warsaw,free to express yourself, to receive knowledge of the institutions within it, and also do party, if necessary, without feeling the hustle and the anxiety of modern speed .
在牆內，它創造了一個避難所/公園，強調了廣場的關係和重要性，以及建築的不可觸摸性，但也可以用於展覽，音樂會，世博展館。適應市民需要的城市，而不是適應城市需要的市民。
Inside the walls it then creates a refuge/park that highlight the relationship and the importance of the square and its buildings acquiring a sort of untouchability, but that can also be used for exhibitions, concerts,expo pavilions. The city that adapts to the needs of the citizen,not the citizen that adapts the needs of the city.
