The Știrbei Domain, a 19th-century historic estate, has long served as a setting for cultural events, public gatherings and film productions. The client sought to replace temporary event facilities with permanent buildings that would support contemporary use while respecting the character of the protected landscape. Rather than introducing dominant architecture, the design reuses two existing event locations: one replacing the former lakeside tent and the other positioned beside an open meadow near Știrbei Palace. Both pavilions were conceived as transparent, lightweight structures that preserve views, existing vegetation and pedestrian routes while providing flexible event spaces. The project demonstrates how contemporary architecture can be integrated into a historic landscape through careful siting, restrained materiality and minimal visual impact, supporting the continued public use of the estate without altering its cultural identity.
