Completely vernacular architectural style will be combined with simple and most recognizable traditional Asian elements, paper lampions.
The structure, designed by Slovenian architects Gregorc & Vrhovec, will support various gathering purposes and people from different backgrounds; sports, media, entrepreneurs and visitors. Focused on multi functionality, hayrack structure will optimally divide the space for different purposes; main social area - restaurant, 2 auditories for informal and formal events, lounge area and open spaces for exhibitions or presentation of the sponsors.
