OBJEKTE TE MEMORIALEVE
Location
Pcs, Hungary
Project Year
2011
From the architect. The existing ruins of the renaissance Szathmry Palace is one of Hungarys most
valuable protected monuments. The palace is situated in the city of Pcs which is one of the oldest town
of the southwestern region of Hungary with long historical background. The ruins are located in a park
of Tettye Valley in the northeast part of the city, where the dense historical urban fabric meets nature.
The valley rises almost
from the heart of the city,
offering a magnificient
view of the city from the
top. Bishop Gyrgy
Szathmry (1457-1524)
built his own Renaissance
style summer residence
here at the very beginning
of the 16th century. The
palace must have been a
two-storey building with
inner patio, made of local
stone. It was said to have been a U-shaped building arranged around a courtyard open towards the
South, that is to say, towards the city. A former archeological excavation confirmed that the Bishop
of Pcshad a building with inner courtyard built that was rebuilt a number of times later. During the
long occupation of Hungary by the Ottoman Empire from the mid-16th century, the palace housed
probably a Turkish dervish cloister. This is when the south-east tower must have been built that is still
untouched. After the Ottomans had
been driven away, the building was left
empty and its condition became worse
and worse. At the beginning of the 20th
century, one part of the building was
demolished, and certain openings were
strengthened with arches, thus
providing a sense of romantic ruin
aesthetics. Until recently the ruin was
used as a background scene for a
summer theatre. Despite the long
history and its superb location, the palace in its bad condition was not able to fullfil the proper role
following from its historical and architectural importance.

Salvador - Bahia, Brazil
Project Year
2006
Part of the plan consisted also in building a Holocaust Memorial, a space capable of filling some
programmatic blanks. First, creating a landmark to the new occupation; second, providing the
visitors with a place to pray, think and meditate, giving the cemetery a useful liturgical space;
third, remembering one of the most important events in the Jewish history, playing an
educational role as well.
The new building respected the goal to organize the Cemetery towards its growing, connecting
to a new gate and a small plaza beside the obituary pavilion, thus becoming an element of
composition to the basic core of reception and permanence of the users during religious
services.
The main wall is oriented towards Jerusalem, absorbing a tradition brought from the synagogue.
Its forms are inspired from the word "chai" - "life" in Hebrew, understanding that the
remembrance from
those that had gone
and from those who
survived is made of
their legacy and their
acts in life. From this
point, the project seeks
to create a space
formed by light and
shadow, using apparent
concrete, brutal and
non perfect, suggesting
the bitterness of the experience lived by the ones who died or survived the shoah.

Each tablet was carefully handcrafted by UAPs design and fabrication team. The 31 tablets
are made of a total of 850 cast aluminium panels. UAPs team used a hand painting
technique to achieve a delicate gradient of colour on the surface that captures the light
rather than reflecting it.

From the architect. The site is in Chapultepec, the most important park of Mexico City. This
part of the forest belongs to the Federal Government and was under the custody of the
Ministery of Defense of Mexico for many deacades; so first of all, the Memorials Project
means the recuperation of 15,000 sqm in terms of public space.
A memorial is the
architectural piece in which
we can find the remembrance
and the memory of the
culture and history; in the
particular case of
the Memorial of the Victims of
the Violence in Mexico, we
materialize, in terms of
architecture, one of the most
important and current issues
of Mexican
society: violence. This is the
big and open wound; in response to this, we propose an open project in the site, opento the
city and open to the apropiation by the citizens; a project with a strong relationship with
the city and her actors. The recuperation of the public space as well as the remembrance of
the victims of violence are the essence of the project.
Our project plays the double condition of public space and memorial.
The first premise was to recognize the vocation of the site as a forest; with a very strong
presence of nature; the trees are there and they characterize the site.
The violence is suggested in two dimensions: the void and the built. The void proposed in
the project is the space created between the steel walls and the trees. This void or empty
space could remind us the concept of the nopresences and absenses of the people to
remember, and the surfaces of the steel walls, rusty or mirroring, show that we can lose
ourselves, add ourselves, or mutiply ourselves.
Besides that, if we think of violence as destruction, the construction of seventy steel walls
plays as the great antidote against the violence .
The big projectual action consists on building seventy metalic walls in corten steel rising
between the trees; it is a dual play between nature and architecture: the forest of trees and
the forest of walls. The society of the trees and the visitors play the living beings; the
society of the
walls play the
unmateriality of
the memories of
the victims.
The list of materials is reduced: steel and concrete, added to the natural elements of the
forest. We are using the corten steel in three ways: natural, rusty or stainless mirroring,
each of them with different meanings. The rusty steel means the marks and scars that time
makes in our lifetime. The stainless mirroring steel is used to reflect and multiply the
living: persons, trees, and the water of the central space; and the natural steel is used as an
unperturbed element that remind us the main and essential values that societies must keep
to live in peace. Concrete is used for the lanes and the benches; for walking and reflection.
In the central space, which is the main space of the Memorial, there is a 1,200 spm fountain
with an undetermined form and open geometry, to remind us that the violence issue is still
opened. The fountain is covered with a grid so that the visitor can walk over the water.
Water means life; water cleans, and water heals.
In this area the steel walls rise stronger and taller, creating the strongest drama in the
whole place. The reflection in the water of trees and walls make our eyes go up and down.
When they go up, they see the sky, the light, the sunthe hope.
Finally, one of the most important parts of the project is the humanization and
appropriation of the steel walls.
Society is responsible for
making the Memorial. The
seventy metallic walls are
spaces for people to write the
name of their victim, and
express their pain, anger, and
longings. These steel walls play
as mirrors and blackboards,
and by the writings, being
transformed into witnesses of
the pain and destruction
provoked by the violence of the
organized crime.

Romsdalen, Rauma, Norway
Project Year

From the architect. The project
will enhance the experience of
the Trollstigen plateaus
location and nature.
Thoughtfulness regarding
features and materials will
underscore the sites temper
and character, and well-
adapted, functional facilities
will augment the visitors
experience. The architecture is to be characterised by clear and precise transitions between planned
zones and the natural landscape. Through the notion of water as a dynamic element from snow, to
running and then falling water- and rock as a static element, the project creates a series of prepositional
relations that describe and magnify the unique spatiality of the site.

From the architect. The Vedahaugane lookout consists in a 90 meters long concrete path
leading the visitor away from the road and into the landscape. A double curve shape follows the
terrain and leads towards a beautiful untouched valley dominated by high mountains and eternal
snow. Jotunheimen mountains are in the distant.
The last third of the path hosts a wooden bench to enable people to relax and enjoy the
magnificent panorama. The wheelchair friendly walkway is floating a few cm above the
ground, supported by round columns to minimize the impact on the landscape and reduce the
actual footprint of the construction. At the same time the intervention gets a light and reversible
expression.
