Estonian studio OÜ Kolm Pluss Üks won the international architecture competition for the Tartu Cultural Center. Selected out of a total of 107 proposals, the winning project titled “Paabel” is set to become the cultural heart of the city center, capturing the competition's main goal and developing an outdoor space solution. The challenge was to create a conceptual plan for the Cultural Center that would include spaces for the Tartu City Library, the Tartu Art Museum, an events center, other support functions, and a vibrant and varied park landscape and “human-scaled” public space around it.
