The Ignacy Jan Paderewski Academy of Music in Poznan is seeking, through a competition, an idea for the design of a building with a cultural-didactic-scientific function at 22 Grunwaldzka Street in Poznan's Lazarus. The competition is co-organized by the SARP Poznań Branch.

purpose

The purpose of the competition, as we read in the regulations, is to select the best concept of a cultural-didactic-scientific building for the I.J. Paderewski Academy of Music in Poznan, together with a theater-stage hall for about 400 spectators and land development, taking into account the architectural, spatial and functional-utility criteria specified in the regulations.

terms and conditions

The competition is a two-stage, implementation competition, conducted under a restricted procedure.

On the plot which is the subject of the competition (at 22 Grunwaldzka Street in Poznań) there is the building of the former Olimpia cinema. Due to its technical condition, the decision was made to demolish the existing building and build a new one, tailored to the needs of the university. The realization of the new building is intended to provide students of stage music, theater and opera with contact with a real theater stage and a live audience already in the course of the didactic process.

The new building will combine the function of a stage for theater and stage music (with an auditorium for about 400 seats), the headquarters for the only studies in this part of Europe in the specialty of artistic violin-making, as well as the headquarters of the Laboratory of New Musical Practices and the Vocal Institute. The building is also planned to include a conference room, film music studios, catering functions, an archive, administrative premises and an underground parking lot with a minimum of 100 parking spaces.

The building should meet modern requirements for cultural and teaching and research functions in the field of music, provide the highest acoustic standards. It is permissible both to design a compact volume and to dismember the body. The concept should take into account the context of the surroundings and complement the historical development quarter as much as possible in terms of urban planning. The designed building should also be environmentally friendly.
