Anywhere in the world, with crisis and without crisis, there are some constants that are repeated at the time of closing an architectural project. Issues doubts and differences of opinion that occur between the technicians outside experts who analyze the project in question and then the criteria and ideas of the architect original author.
Some contemporary architects, like Menis, use unprecedented and originals materials as part of one new and innovative idea that he develops for a particular building in a particular place.
It look like simple question, but change a material is a change in identity and construction and architectural coherence of the building; and it is important the search of roots in the vernacular Torun tradition (in this case with the use of brick), the affirmation of the emotional resulting in massive structures with thick walls and roofs, materials with local textures. So if we have discussed this before in many ocaasions with the client, what to do for go ahead? Is necesary in these cases a plus of confidence in the whole team?
Consider that in the case of the New Music Hall in Torun, Menis was commissioned to design an initial "audience", a site whose initial function was to host the symphony concert, opera or similar musical events especially. This was -initially-not necesry to combine music with theatrical use or with conferences and fairs use. ( Moneo had the same problem in the Kursaal in San Sebastián). After winning the competition and work near two years, in july 2010, Menis was ordered by Torun Twon Hall to turn the project in a theatrer and congress space too, so Menis was commisioned to extend the initial building applications. This resulted in an obvious increase of volumen and cost. It is normal, and Poland have another similar problems like this in new cultural buildings in Wroklac and Sczcezin, for example.
