Weilburg Terraces / ACME

Oct 2009

By Karen Cilento — Filed under: Architecture News ,Awarded Competitions ,Mixed Use , ACME, Germany, Weilburg, Weilburg Terraces

The city council of Weilburg, Germany, a dense medieval city, organized a design competition upon the demolition of an existing parking structure. ACME’s terrace design is a contemporary spin on the Baroque terraced-landscape building typology found nearby in the Weilburg Castle Gardens. The form becomes an integrated part of the landscape, allowing the project to blend into the surrounding context while inviting inhabitation and managing to create “specific urban character towards some if its city context”.

This project won the first prize from the voting public and the second prize from the professional jury.

UN Memorial / ACME

Oct 2009

By Karen Cilento — Filed under: Architecture News ,Awarded Competitions ,Monuments and Memorials , ACME, Chungju, South Korea, UN Memorial

London-based architecture firm ACME was awarded third prize in a recent competition to design a United Nations memorial. Initiated by the city of Chungju in South Korea, the selected memorial will rest in the city’s UN Peace Park. ACME’s proposal is comprised of a 1,500 seating assembly, two conference halls, a theater and exhibition spaces. The organization of the memorial is metaphorically modeled similarly to the United Nations, where many parts make up the whole.

More about the memorial after the break.
