"Cultural centers serve as a productive ground for unbuilt architectural exploration, reflecting how architects are rethinking the role of public institutions in relation to landscape, experience, and program hybridity."
"The selected projects bring together a range of proposals that expand the definition of the cultural center beyond a singular building, positioning architecture as a spatial framework."
"These proposals explore how cultural programs can be organized through movement, spatial layering, and relationships between interior and exterior conditions."
Cultural centers are increasingly viewed as platforms for architectural innovation, moving beyond traditional building forms. The selected projects showcase a variety of proposals that integrate landscape, experience, and program hybridity. They highlight architecture's role in mediating research, exhibition, and public life across different geographies. Examples include landscape-integrated complexes, adaptive reuse of military buildings, and climate-responsive institutions. These projects emphasize movement, spatial layering, and the interplay between interior and exterior environments, expanding the definition of cultural infrastructure.
