Buddhist Center Warsaw- new edifice, 2015-2024, was before a warehouse from 50., whose architecture was redesigned by Grupa 5 Architects according to requirements of conservation of monuments. Interior design was done to keep the new concrete construction inside visible. This decision needed to be strongly balanced with “warming” materials as oak veneer of acoustic panels, or red upholstery, to avoid too rough atmosphere.
