Koncpecja Student Development and Recreation Center was created with the needs of young people in mind. Its author is {tag:studenci}, a graduate of the Eugeniusz Geppert Academy of Fine Arts in Wroclaw. The designer proposed to transform the 83 Tetmajera Gallery building in Cracow into a dynamic, multifunctional place. The project is based on the technical documentation of Atelier Loegler Architekci, but the architect enriched it with her own ideas and innovative solutions. The center is intended to be a space, not only combining various aspects of student life - learning, recreation, integration, but also inspiring creative spending of time and personal development.

friendly and functional design
From the entrance, we are greeted bya spacious lobby with a reception desk, whose character is emphasized by stainless steel panels imitating the surface of water. The lighting in this part of the building creates unique visual effects that give the place elegance and dynamism. Next awaits the restaurant - a place to meet and relax. The copper bar, decorated with artificial plants, gives the interior a warm, friendly atmosphere. Next to it is the café, which encourages less formal meetings over coffee and dessert. The interior of the café is a harmonious combination of mirrors, wood and greenery, which creates an atmosphere conducive to both relaxation and conversation.

space for learning and development
The center's library is a place that combines modernity with functionality. It offers a wide selection of books, magazines and multimedia, as well as workstations for individual and group work. Particularly outstanding here are the "cottages" - modern and comfortable workspaces that promote concentration. The study room, on the other hand, was designed with flexibility in mind - you'll find both individual workspaces and spaces for group work. A mezzanine floor with additional workstations is a great solution to make the most of the available space.

activity and integration
The center also has a climbing room, designed for male and female students who appreciate active recreation. Equipped with professional climbing walls of varying levels of difficulty, it provides an opportunity to de-stress and take care of physical form. A glass wall letting in natural light adds energy and motivation.

The integration room, on the other hand, is a space designed for networking and relationship building. Equipped with comfortable seating and audiovisual equipment, it is conducive to organizing meetings, team games or informal conversations. The lecture-cinema room, equipped with ergonomic chairs and modern multimedia equipment, hosts presentations, lectures and film screenings, making it a place for both education and entertainment.

a modern vision of student life
Karolina Parys' project is not only a response to the contemporary needs of young people, but also an example of how a creative approach to architecture can create a space conducive to learning, relaxation and integration. "The Student Development and Recreation Center is a place that brings people together, inspires action and offers space for all-round development."
