Lattice Tower

Situated on the slopes of Polak Hill, the Lattice Tower transforms an area of historical significance into an immersive architectural journey. It reinterprets memory as experience—inviting visitors to explore rather than merely observe. Constructed primarily from timber, it merges material honesty with phenomenological depth, linking nature, heritage, and human aspiration.

Description:

The design translates intangible values—courage, history, and coexistence—into a physical structure. From afar, the tower appears as a delicate silhouette dissolving into the sky, a wooden “cloud” emerging from the landscape. Its transparency and density shift with the viewer’s movement, harmonizing with the rhythm of trees around it. As visitors ascend, the form grows lighter, evoking both excitement and reflection—a vertical journey through space, memory, and emotion.

At its base, the exposed timber structure reveals its logic—simple joinery and visible detailing convey craftsmanship and clarity. The ascent is not only a path upward but a sequence of experiences: platforms for rest, reflection, and storytelling. Each level becomes a fragment of the region’s collective memory, narrating the courage and endurance of its defenders. The tower thus becomes a vertical museum in the open air, inviting exploration, discovery, and remembrance.
