Mirvita Freespace — the Future #ArtScienceHumanism XXIst

Best Project of Public Building or Facility

About the project
Mirvita is a cutting-edge polyfunctional and transdisciplinary public building and facilities, a space open to other spaces where ArtScienceHumanism merges in a stimulating environment. The encounter among creativity, architecture, science, native vines is the foundation of a project born in a territory once center of the world civilization.
Mirvita architectonic dimension is inspired by Suprematism art movement and UNOVIS. Lazar Khidekel’s heritage -the first architect ecologist of modern times- is more in demand, so consonant with Mirvita, cantor of the CosmoNature dimension. The five interconnected levels of Mirvita are related to history, human relations, creativity, scientific research where Nature becomes a full participant, fading the boundaries between the landscape and underground spaces. Lights and shadows, sounds and silences help to perceive the Beauty and Harmony of Nature. Local construction materials are combined with innovation through audacious technological structures.
