The new congress hall in banja luka will definitely make a huge change in the art,
music and theatre impact for the city, so the idea of having

The congress hall:
The congress hall mass is the main mass of the project where it stands on 2 main roads giving a focal point to the project, it’s iconic and dominant yet welcoming and introducing. We choose the narrow shifting opening of the mass resembling the music beats that gives the feeling of a rhythm specially at night when it is lighted also it helps in decreasing the thermal load on the facades in the sunny days.
Form and concept:
The idea began with making a very dynamic yet geometrical form that shows the dancing masses on multi grid and also stand along the urban fabric.
