Civic
The Public Service Hall is envisioned as a contemporary civic landmark, symbolizing openness, transparency, and the enduring strength of national heritage. Its exterior form draws inspiration from the image of a waving castle, merging the protective symbolism of fortification with the dynamic fluidity of movement.
The façade is articulated through 150 slender white fins, which create a rhythmic, almost sculptural plasticity. These vertical elements are more than ornamental they embody both solidity and permeability. From afar, the fins present a strong, unified silhouette, reminiscent of castle walls. Up close, their delicate spacing and curvature allow light and air to flow, dissolving the heaviness of stone into a gesture of welcome.
The building’s architectural language emphasizes duality: permanence and motion, tradition and innovation, strength and openness. Just as castles once stood as civic centers of protection and governance, the Public Service Hall reinterprets this role for the present offering not defence, but service; not enclosure, but accessibility.
In its lightness, whiteness, and fluid geometry, the Hall becomes a symbol of hospitality and civic pride, projecting a forward-looking identity while rooted in cultural memory. It is not only a functional hub of public life, but also an architectural gesture that greets visitors with dignity and openness.
