"IWURA" the Performing Art Center

Project idea

THE CONCEPT WAS BORN FROM EDGE OF THE SITE ITSELF BY TAKING THE QUALITY OF “FUZZY BOUNDARY” OF THE RIVER BANK ("IWURA") . SO THE SPACES ARE DESIGNED ACCORDING TO THIS CONCEPT TO ENHANCE THE INTERACTIONS AMONG PUBLIC AND PERFORMERS. THE DESIGN REFLECTS THE IDEA THAT SOCIAL CLASS , RICH OR POOR DOES NOT AFFECT TO THE PERFORMING ARTS.
