Abstract
The PUBLIC CONDENSER provides a framework for interesting meetings between culture and movement and between people. It will be a place where people of different ages, exercise habits, cultural consumption and lifestyles encounter each other. It should be a place where there is room to be with friends and family, but also a place where you meet new people. The physical form of the PUBLIC CONDENSER must support these meetings, so there is opportunity to follow many of the ongoing activities and be inspired by what others are doing. External facilities must provide interactive cultural experiences and encourage people to play and exercise, contributing to the dynamic city life in the area.
