☉ The Pyramid Square is a second prize proposal by Sara Navazo and Edorta Larizgoitia for Lost Architecture Competition designed in 2014. It is located in Tirana Albania in a park setting. Its scale is medium. Key materials are metal and fabric. Concepts such as grid flexibility and textile are explored.
The intervention in the Pyramid Square is a simple gesture, as a result of the existing building. Simple but powerful. We get rid of all the elements of the space, leaving a clear canvas for the new project. Then we create a grid of vertical poles (thin columns) that occupies all the square. Every kind of activity could happen around these poles, they help people to regain their own public space.
