Sklop Zagrebačkog velesajma

The Zagreb Fair Complex

Povijesno-prostorni razvoj Tradicija sajmova na zagrebačkom prostoru traje još od 13. stoljeća, ali povijest Zagrebačkoga velesajma započinje 1850. godine kada se ujedinjenjem Gradeca i Kaptola ujedinjuju i njihovi sajmovi. Sajam je nekoliko puta izmješten na lokacije u nekonsolidiranom dijelu grada kako bi se potaknuo razvitak, a na današnju lokaciju premješten je odlukom iz 1955. godine na inicijativu gradonačelnika Većeslava Holjevca. Iduće godine započela je izgradnja i tekla je u nekoliko etapa. Pedesetih godina prošloga stoljeća podignuto je nekoliko većih paviljona, šezdesetih veći broj manjih paviljona, a sedamdesetih godina gradnja se nastavila, ali je karakterizira manja arhitektonska vrijednost izgradnje. Devedesetih godina dograđen je južni ulaz i zgrada carine. Autor urbanističke osnove Zagrebačkoga velesajma je Marijan Haberle koji je također autor dogradnje Velesajma na njegovoj prijašnjoj lokaciji u Savskoj ulici, kao i nekoliko paviljona na današnjoj lokaciji. Među ostalim renomiranim hrvatskim arhitektima koji su sudjelovali u projektiranju paviljona su: Božidar Rašica, Ivo Vitić, i Miroslav Begović. Haberle, Rašica i Begović radili su i kao profesori na Tehničkom, odnosno Arhitektonskom fakultetu u Zagrebu. Valorizacija Najvrjedniji dio sklopa Zagrebačkoga velesajma zacijelo su paviljoni čiji su autori najpoznatiji arhitekti hrvatske moderne kao i specifični nacionalni paviljoni. S druge strane, uslijed povećane potražnje za kvadraturom, dogodile su se i brojne neplanske dogradnje i pregradnje. Nekoliko paviljona preuzele su privatne tvrtke i modificirale ih sukladno svojim potrebama, ogradivši ih od ostatka sklopa. Slično tome, pojedini paviljoni spojeni su međusobno na neadekvatan način, u smislu oblikovanja i prekidanja pješačkih veza i vizura. Sklop Velesajma obiluje napuštenim kioscima i nakupinama građevinskog i ostalog otpada.

Historical and spatial development The tradition of trade fairs in the Zagreb area dates back to the 13th of the Zagreb Fair begins in 1850 with the unification of Gradec and Kaptol and so also their fairs. The fair has been relocated several times to locations in unconsolidated parts of the city to encourage development and was moved to its current location by a decision made in 1955 on the initiative of Mayor Većeslav Holjevac. The following year saw the commencement of construction and it was conducted in several stages. In the 1950s several major pavilions were built, in the 1960s a number of smaller pavilions were built and in the 1970s construction continued, but is characterised by construction that is not so architecturally valuable. The south entrance and customs building was built additionally in the 1990s. The author of the urban basis of the grounds of the Zagreb Fair is Marijan Haberle and he is also the author of the additions built at the Fair at its previous location in Savska Street, as well as of several pavilions built at the current location. Other prominent Croatian architects who participated in the design of the pavilion include: Bozidar Rašica, Ivo Vitić, and Miroslav Begović. Haberle, Rašica Begović also worked as professors at the Technical Faculty or the Faculty of Architecture in Zagreb. Valorisation The most valuable part of the Zagreb Fair complex are certainly the pavilions designed by the most famous architects of the Croatian modern, as well as specific national pavilions. On the other hand, due to an increased demand for square footage, there have been numerous unplanned additions and remodelling. Several pavilions have been taken on by private companies that have modified them according to their needs, fencing them off from the rest of the complex. Similarly, some pavilions are connected in an inadequate manner, in terms of design and interruptions to pedestrian connections and vistas. The Fair complex is full of abandoned kiosks and the remains of building materials and other waste.

Prijedlog obnove Prva faza prijedloga obnove uklanjanje je otpada i propale zaostale izgradnje s lokacije. Druga je uklanjanje paviljona bez naročite arhitektonske vrijednosti s ciljem ostvarivanja boljih pješačkih veza i vizura u skladu s inicijalnim konceptom Velesajma arhitekta Haberlea. Važan je povratak javne namjene u sve paviljone. Geometrija paviljona pogoduje većini sadržaja pa bi proširivanje aktualne ponude sportskih i kulturnih sadržaja moglo vratiti značaj prostoru Velesajma.

Proposal for renovation The first phase of the proposal for renovation is the removing of waste and residual collapsed buildings from the site. The second is the removal of pavilions of no particular architectural value in order to achieve better pedestrian connections and vistas in accordance with the initial concept of the Fair by architect Haberle. It is important that pavilions once again serve a public purpose. The geometry of the pavilions is appropriate for most contents and so the extension of the current sporting and cultural events offers might restore importance to the space of the Fair.
