VILNIUS TECH graduate won LASKAO-ERGOLAIN scholarship
Neda Šiaulianskaitė, a graduate of the Faculty of Architecture of VILNIUS TECH, has become the winner of the scholarship competition organised by the Klaipėda District Organisation of the Lithuanian Association of Architects (LASKAO) in cooperation with "Ergolain projektai".
The theme of this year's competition was "Klaipėda Region. Topical architecture". Students of all higher schools of Architecture were invited to participate in the competition. Neda Šiaulianskaitė, a master's student at VILNIUS TECH, won the competition with her project "Water and Architecture: the Juodkrantė Amber Museum" (supervised by lect. Šarūnas Petrauskas).
Her project addresses the problem of the harmony between water and architecture. "I aimed to highlight the importance of water in architecture and to assess its potential in creating environments that not only reflect the naturalness, but also interact with the environment and human experience," says Šiaulianskaitė.
The graduate has proposed to the Klaipėda region a project of the Juodkrante Amber Museum, where water, as N. Šiaulianskaitė says, "can become an integral part of contemporary architecture, providing an opportunity to create harmonious spaces, to be inspired by and to search for ways of expression of water in architecture in a way that building harmoniously interacts with the element of water".
The jury of the competition: architects Mantas Daukšys, Vladas Balsys, Gediminas Petrauskas, representatives of LASKAO; architect Aurelija Jankuvienė, representative of Klaipėda City Municipality; Kristina Siliūnienė, representative of "Ergolain projektai".
The exhibition of the competition projects is on display in the LASKAO hall until 2 August 2024 (3rd floor, Bažnyčių st. 6-1, Klaipėda).
