Protect the Past / Create the Future
Protect the Past / Create the Future

Interventions at archaeological sites contribute to the preservation of historical heritage for future generations. Drawing inspiration from the old it is possible to come up with new, interesting architectural solutions. Merging the old with the new we create future architecture.
The main idea of this project was to find the best solution for a protective structure over thermae at Viminacium, Roman city and legionary fort in east Serbia. Characteristic views of the site were taken as a significant urban aspect influencing the form of the canopy. Form follows a diagonal in order for visitors to see the canopy as it rises from the ground and opens up to the square on the other side. This canopy attributes the panorama of the site while creating interesting spaces for potential visitors.
