NG ROOM
THE DOME
a Mogić-Sretenović | Katarina Todorović
The Dome During the advancement of Kragujevac city, the selected location had many buildings but eventually they got demolished. We wanted to bring a symbol that reminds people of the history of our location - we chose a Dome, similar to one that was once on top of one building many years ago. The dome symbolizes the connection between people. The circular design works around a center and then everything goes around it. We wanted a design that symbolizes the gathering of the people and that’s how we got to the concept of a dome out of tires. Red and a Tire There is a rapid growth of waste tires from different types of vehicles - which is bad for our planet. Wasted tires end up in communal areas. People don’t know what to do with them so we came up with an idea to use tires for the project Urban Living Room and include pedestrians in building the dome. The red color is the city color of Kragujevac. It symbolizes the industries in the city such as (Zastava Arms) and automobile (FCA Srbija) industries. These industries bloomed during Yugoslavia era.
