The proposal by BudCud for the Osiedle Przyjaźń 2.0 is an innovative university campus located in the center of Bemowo district in Warsaw. Founded in the1950s as a habitat of small wooden houses, filled with an abundance of green areas, the campus is a crucial factor for city development. It is an element, which significantly affects the attractiveness of a district or even a whole city. While retaining its small scale character, their urban arrangement is clearly divided into function zones. Each zone works as a separate unit of a bigger network – sustainable, modern and pro-social estate. More images and architects’ description after the break.
The new campus consists of a housing estate with many different housing typologies, educational and commercial buildings, and one multifunctional building being ‘a year-round agora’. The in-between space is a set of differentiated public spaces. The estate is a car-free zone: cars are parked in underground car park below main public strip.
