UNDERWATER WORLD
This project represents the typical architecture of the Old Town in Plovdiv, Bulgaria. But instead of standing on the street, you’re looking at the city from underwater! It is true that Plovdiv is far away from the sea, but this project reimagines it as if it was the lost city of Atlantide. Amongst the colourful fish and starfish one can see the typical features of old Bulgarian architecture. The houses consist of two to three floors and the accent is on the human scale, nature and simplicity. The narrow streets fell homely and if one climbs on the first floor and reaches his hand out towards the opposite house, he could almost physiclaly reach his neighbors.
This emphasis on sensitivity and humanity in all proportions is a feature of authentic Balkan architecture. In this fairytale interpretation of an ancient city, my main goal was to explore different media and how they could be combined.
