Visitor Centre Black Stork, Osekovo Clinica studio, Roth i Čerina

Project description
The permanent exhibition presents to visitors the key natural phenomena of this protected area. This complex ecosystem is interpreted through a combination of analog interactive exhibits, digitally told stories, sculptural fragments, and tactile reliefs, condensing a varied sensorial introduction before embarking on a visit to the vast wetland. The project consists of two buildings connected by an educational park and 3 viewpoints, built of natural materials in accordance with the morphology of local construction. Spatial elements grow out of the rhythm of the continuous linear oak planks, through which the wooden interior becomes the basis for exhibits in the function of interpretation.
NOMINATION FOR CROATIAN DESIGNERS ASSOCIATION GRAND PRIX
Explanation by the Selection Committee
The architecture of the visitor center sensitively approaches the specific situation encountered, creating an unobtrusive and respectful dialogue with place and time. The design of the permanent exhibition – which includes interpretation, excellent illustrations, design of multimedia and material exhibits and furniture, and visual treatment of the entire space – carries forward this measured approach, achieving a harmonious multi-tactile whole. The center is located in the heart of the war-ravaged county, which, despite reconstruction, has never recovered and has been on a downward trajectory for 25 years, greatly accelerated by the devastating earthquake of December 2020. In addition to the fact that the construction of the center created a new place of contemporary architecture and design to improve the socio-cultural dimension of the life of the local population, the project is also an excellent example of strengthening continental tourism in Croatia. Such projects truly present tectonic shifts and are of crucial importance for the survival of the region.
