Type: article
Abstract: The objective of this research is to provide an overview of the archi�tectural concept and execution of a building that effectively combines administrative and cultural functions. The construction of the building took place in Jegunovtse, Republic of North Macedonia, covering an area of 19911 m2 and including 796 units. The primary aim of this project is to provide a harmonious operational integration inside a building that encompasses three distinct functions: theater, culture, and administrative spaces. The proposed project includes a subterranean area designated for technological infrastructure and storage purposes. Multipurpose rooms occupy the ground level, while administrative functions occupy the first floor. The methodology employed in this study comprises three primary phases. The initial phase entails conducting a thorough and meticulous analysis of the site. As a result, the second phase entails the creation of a strategic functional program. Finally, the third phase includes research into the selection of materials and techniques in conjunction with construction. The findings indicate that the architectural layout of the facility demonstrates a high level of adaptability in accommodating many uses, including but not limited to communal gatherings, theatrical presentations, and community gatherings. The multi-purpose hall enhances versatility by including telescoping stands and flexible seats, allowing for efficient adaptation. One noteworthy architectural element is the integration of detachable partition panels, which provide versatility in extending the hall into an outside area, creating a delightful summer ambiance. In conclusion, the establishment cultivates a sense of community engagement by providing a flexible environment that may support various cultural and administrative programs. This project demonstrates the notable outcomes achieved via the use of adaptive design principles in the development of adaptable public spaces.
