PENTAGON

Apartments, offices and shopping space complex, Kardzhali, Bulgaria

The site is on the Arda riverbank in the centre of the city. The composition concept is based on a quadrangle box- like section of the five story building, extruded into a tube format. This tube configuration is further encircled around a central pentagonal courtyard, which is the inner green district square. The moments of folding the quadrangle tube at the corners of the pentagon become architecture events. The pentagonal tube containing 198 apartments and penthouses 60 to 190 sq m, is “floating” above the shopping and public service areas on the ground and the first floors.

The plot is 4600 sq.m. The total floor area of the complex is 24000 sq.m. consisting of apartments, office, and shopping spaces, as well as car parking space.
