Searching for the Proper Measure
The idea of measure, highly appreciated in ancient Greek, meant harmony, balance, chariness, temperance,
wisdom and it found its place not only in philosophy but also, through concrete presentation, in architecture. In
this large perspective, we are searching for a proper measure. After 1992, the Union of Architects from Romania
has organized the Bucharest Architecture Biennale. On this occasion the projects elaborated during the past two
years are selected for the contest and from these projects, the specialized juries are nominating and recompensing
the works they find to be the best.
This year, for the 10th Bucharest National Architecture Biennale, the two years time frame did not convince us and
we introduced time loop, works and personalities from the past in the exhibition Romanian Architects Creators of
Patrimony starting from the end of the 19th century, highlighting especially the personality of the architect Ion
Mincu, and reaching to present works, urban perspective studies until 2020, including also projects of architecture
students. The analyzed sections encompass a large spread of works, including architecture, town planning, design,
restoration works, written words, etc.
What are we learning for the future, what are the conclusions, what are the proper measure and the perspective
for the design of the future objectives? Globally, we are crossing a stage of searching for the improvement of the
built environment. Extravagantly luxuriously and high buildings are emerging in the United Arab Emirates, United
States or Near East or Far East, up to China or Japan, but also ecologic constructions, with an organic structure and a
minimumcost for materials and the execution. Europe is searching for an impressive architecture for newbuildings but
also for improving or expanding solutions for buildings started fifty years ago. For example, the buildings in Paris, in
the La Defense area, are forming an ensemble which is naturally continuing the existing structure of the city, within a
well thought concept, designed in harmony with the specific structure of this big metropolis.
What would be the proper measure for Bucharest? The international competition launched for Bucharest 2000
was ignored and we are wondering when will the planning of a high ensemble in the area of Casa Poporului be
resumed? The high buildings erected in the old parts of the city are not blending in the existing historic ensemble,
but on the contrary, for example, the BANCOREX building was not assimilated in the past years and it is still an
aggressive vertical which is contrasting to the CEC palace and the entire historic complex built over time.
The reaction of the citizens and of the majority of the architects has succeeded in stopping other high buildings from
being erected, in contrast to the harmony of the area. In this way, the proposals for building in Cimigiu were stopped,
but many other buildings were erected in existing areas, against any reason and professional culture. The Bucharest
National Architecture Biennale aims to be primarily a time for thinking about the road to be taken by the architects
professional practice, about cherishing the culture and the past and about finding a proper measure for the future.

Introducere / Introduction
n cutarea justei msuri
Ideea de msur, mult apreciat n Grecia Antic, nsemna armonie, echilibru, chibzuial, cumptare, nelepciune
i ea i-a gsit locul nu numai n filozofie ci, printr-o reprezentare concret, i n arhitectur. n aceast perspectiv
larg cutm o just msur. Din 1994, Uniunea Arhitecilor din Romnia a organizat Bienala de Arhitectura
Bucureti. Cu aceast ocazie sunt selecionate proiecte elaborate ntr-o perioad de doi ani care intr n concurs i
din care juriile de specialitate nominalizeaz i premiaz lucrrile pe care le consider cele mai reuite.
n acest an, la a zecea Bienal Naional de Arhitectur Bucureti, perioada de doi ani nu ni s-a prut elocvent i,
de aceea am creat un arc peste timp, introducnd lucrri i personaliti din trecut n expoziia ,,Arhiteci Romni
Creatori de Patrimoniu Cultural, care acoper o perioad ce pornete de la sfritul secolului al XIX-lea - prin
marcarea n mod special a personalitii arhitectului Ion Mincu - i ajunge pn la lucrri actuale, studii urbane
de perspectiv pn n 2020, incluznd chiar i proiecte ale studenilor arhiteci. Seciunile analizate cuprind deci o
plaj larg de lucrri, fiind incluse lucrri de arhitectur, urbanism, design, restaurri, cuvnt scris etc.
Ce reinem pentru viitor, ce concluzii tragem, care este justa msur i perspectiva n care s concepem obiectivele
viitoare?
Pe plan mondial trecemprintr-o etap de cutri pentru ameliorarea mediului construit. Apar construcii de un lux
i nlimi exorbitante n Emiratele Arabe Unite, n Statele Unite sau n Orientul Apropiat sau mai ndeprtat, pn
n China sau Japonia, dar i construcii ecologice, cu o structur organic, cu un cost minim privind materialele i
execuia. n Europa se caut o arhitectur impresionant pentru construcii noi dar i ameliorarea sau extinderea
unor ansambluri ncepute deja cu cincizeci de ani n urm. De exemplu, construciile nalte grupate la Paris n zona
La Dfense formeaz un ansamblu care continu firesc structura existent a oraului ntr-un concept bine gndit,
compus n armonie cu structura specific acestei mari metropole.
Care ar fi justa msur pentru Bucureti?
Concursul internaional lansat pentru ,,Bucureti 2000 a fost ignorat i ne ntrebm cnd se va relua planificarea
unui ansamblu cu regim mare de nlime n zona ,,Casei Poporului? Construciile nalte care au fost ridicate
n zonele vechi ale oraului nu se integreaz armonios n ansamblul istoric existent, ci dimpotriv. Cldirea
,,BANCOREX, de exemplu, nu a fost asimilat n cursul anilor care au trecut, rmnnd i astzi o vertical
agresiv care scoate din scar palatul CEC i tot ansamblul istoric constituit n timp.
Reacia locuitorilor i a majoritii arhitecilor a reuit s stopeze alte construcii ieite din scara oraului i din
armonia ansamblului. Aa s-au oprit propunerile de a se construi n Cimigiu, dar multe altele s-au materializat
n construcii implantate n zone existente, mpotriva oricrei raiuni i culturi profesionale. Bienala Naional de
Arhitectur Bucureti se dorete a fi, n primul rnd, un moment de cugetare despre drumul pe care ar trebui s
l urmeze practica profesional a arhitecilor, despre preuirea culturii i a trecutului i despre gsirea unei juste
msuri pentru viitor.

The 2012 Bucharest National Architecture Biennale - 2011 Preparatory Procedures
APPOINTING THE COMMISSIONER
Regarding the 2006, 2008 and 2010 editions of the BAB, the UAR Senate accepted to assign the event organization
to ARHITECTURA review editorship. Once their collaboration with the respective review came to an end, they
selected another team. Having in view the development of the 2010 edition when a honorific commissioner was
appointed, they thought the commissioners appointment would settle the team matter by the fact that such an
appointed commissioner was to make up his/her own team.
In the autumn of 2011, they requested name suggestions from architecture higher education institutions as it
was believed that ensuring the events theoretical and professional quality involved the work of a trainer. The
UAR Senate appointed Professor Architect Cristina Gociman, Ph.D. from among a list of three names of professor
architects from various UAIM sections. Their choice was based on Mrs. Gocimans involvement in the activities of
Bucharest OAR, having her expertise acquired by the organization of Architecture Annuals of Bucharest subsidiary.
THE CONTEXT
The tenth edition of the 2012 Bucharest Architecture Biennale (original title) was to take place in a special
context conditioned by several new elements: the BAB overlapped the celebration of 120 years since the SAR came
into being (preceding the UAR) and the early times of public architecture education along with the celebration
of 100 years since the death of Ion Mincu, a famous professor, an innovator of Romanian architecture and the
economic crisis circumstances.
Taking the opportunity of the above-mentioned events to emphasize the BAB among other similar events yet
with regional or county extensions, it was decided to take the name Bucharest National Architecture Biennale.
The change in its change resulted from the comments and debates on a potential correlation of all similar events
particularly the Architecture Annual of Bucharest OAR, of the exhibitions of organizations in Timi, Suceava, Sibiu.
DEFININIG THE THEME
The themes of previous BAB editions have continuously evolved: the exhibition including the architectural output of
the last 2 years made the passage to diversifying constituent sections and connecting the main event with collateral
manifestations (conferences, workshops, debates etc.) which were increasingly numerous and varied. Additionally,
the jury made up of members from our country gradually turned into several juries with more foreign members.
Taking account of the crisis situation, the UAR recommended that the BNAB should resume its presentation of
the last two years outcomes subject to analyses, debates, thorough polls, critical endeavors which were meant to
double both the event in the capital and the events generated by the exhibitions itineration about the country. The
previous editions had already outlined the fact that too many collateral events could overshadow the main goal:
reviewing the strengths and weaknesses of the recent architectural outcomes in Romania.
Bienala Naional de Arhitectur Bucureti 2012 - Proceduri pregtitoare 2011
NUMIREA COMISARULUI
Pentru ediiile din anii 2006, 2008 i 2010 ale BAB, Senatul UAR a acceptat atribuirea organizrii ctre echipa
Redaciei revistei ARHITECTURA. Odat cu ncetarea colaborrii cu respectiva echip, s-a trecut la selectarea altei
echipe. Avnd n vedere modul de funcionare a ediiei din 2010, cnd s-a numit un comisar onorific, s-a apreciat
c desemnarea comisarului va rezolva i problema echipei, prin faptul c acest comisar numit urma s-i formeze
o echip proprie.
n toamna anului 2011 s-au solicitat propuneri de nume din cadrul nvmntului superior de arhitectur,
considerndu-se c asigurarea nivelului teoretic i profesional al manifestrii impune implicarea unui cadru
didactic. Din lista coninnd numele a 3 colege, profesoare doctor arhitect din diverse seciuni ale UAIM, Senatul
UAR a numit pe doamna Cristina Gociman. Alegerea a luat n considerare implicarea doamnei Gociman n
activitatea OAR Bucureti i experiena nsuit prin organizarea Anualelor de Arhitectur ale filialei din Capital.
CONTEXTUL
Ediia a X-a a Bienalei de Arhitectur Bucureti (titulatura originar) din 2012 urma s se desfoare ntr-un
context deosebit, condiionat de cteva elemente inedite: suprapunerea BAB cu mplinirea a 120 de ani de la
fondarea SAR (premergtoarea UAR) i nceputul nvmntului de stat n arhitectur i a 100 de ani de la
moartea lui Ion Mincu, profesor renumit i inovator al arhitecturii romneti. La aceste elemente comemorative
s-a adugat, din pcate, i situaia de criz economic.
Profitnd de evenimentele menionate pentru evidenierea BAB ntre alte manifestri de factur similar, dar de
extensie regional sau judeean, s-a czut de acord ca denumirea s devin Bienala Naional de Arhitectur
Bucureti. Schimbarea denumirii a survenit i ca urmare a comentariilor i discuiilor legate de eventuala
(posibila) corelare a tuturor manifestrilor similare, n spe Anuala de Arhitectur a OAR Bucureti, a expoziiilor
organizaiilor din Timi, Suceava, Sibiu.
DEFINIREA TEMEI
Tematica ediiilor anterioare ale BAB a evoluat continuu: de la expoziia cuprinznd producia de arhitectur
a ultimilor 2 ani, s-a trecut la diversificarea seciunilor componente i la nsoirea evenimentului principal cu
manifestri colaterale (conferine, ateliere, dezbateri etc.), din ce n ce mai numeroase i variate. De asemenea, de
la juriul cu membri din ar s-a trecut treptat la mai multe jurii cu membri din strintate mai numeroi.
Avnd n vedere situaia de criz, recomandarea conducerii UAR a fost ca BNAB s revin la prezentarea produciei
pe ultimii 2 ani, care s fie exploatat prin analize, dezbateri, sondaje aprofundate, demersuri critice care
urmau s dubleze deopotriv manifestarea din Capital i cele prilejuite de itinerarea expoziiei prin ar. Ediiile
anterioare puseser n eviden faptul c prea multe evenimente colaterale pot umbri scopul principal: trecerea
n revist a calitii i defectelor produciei recente de arhitectur din Romnia.

ECONOMIC ASPECTS
In compliance with the financial agreements of the latest BAB, the UAR Senate provided the necessary funds (taken
from the Architecture Stamp Duty) in the budgets of 2011 and 2012. The UAR management warned that the
amount made available and originally representing a quarter of the total cost would now mean probably almost a
third of it. This presumption was based on the difficulty in attracting sponsorship and on the potential decrease of
ministries contribution (MDRT and MCPN) as a result of budget adjustments.
It supposed radical changes in the 2010 BAB budget structure placed at the Commissioners disposal in order to get
informed. The entire event should have been made up of the architecture exhibition illustrating the outcomes of
2011-2012 accompanied by critical comments, debates, analyses that it generated. The judging was to be carried
out by only one jury mainly (if not wholly) made up of Romanian professionals to be more deeply involved into
the research and assessment of architecture in Romania. Thus, the events on the occasion of the BAB the series
of panels, symposia etc. could also pursue the itineration about the country.

ASPECTE ECONOMICE
n acord cu ncheierile financiare ale ultimei BAB, Senatul UAR a prevzut fondurile necesare (din Timbrul
Arhitecturii) n bugetele pe 2011 i 2012. Conducerea UAR a avertizat c suma pus la dispoziie, care reprezenta
nainte un sfert din costul total, va reprezenta acum probabil cca. o treime. Prezumarea s-a bazat pe dificultile
de atragere a sponsorizrilor i pe posibila reducere a contribuiei ministerelor (MDRT i MCPN) ca urmare a
tierilor bugetare.
Aceasta presupunea modificri radicale fa de structura bugetului BAB 2010, pus la dispoziia comisarului spre
informare. ntreaga manifestare ar fi trebuit s constea n expoziia de arhitectur ilustrnd producia anilor
2011-2012, nsoit de comentarii, dezbateri, analize critice generate de aceasta. Jurizarea urma s fie efectuat
de un singur juriu, compus majoritar (dac nu integral) din profesioniti romni, care s se implice mai profund n
cercetarea i evaluarea arhitecturii din Romnia. Astfel, manifestrile prilejuite de BAB - suita de mese rotunde,
simpozioane etc. - puteau urmri i itinerarea prin ar.

The BNAB2012 in October/November of this year provided a wonderful opportunity for the members of the Jury to
experience the contemporary architecture of Romania.
The Architectural projects which were visited ranged from very modest domestic works, commercial and public
buildings, to extremely large projects which had significant impact on the urban fabric and the environment in
which they were located.
The assessment process involved visiting each building to fully understand its context, its architectural realisation
and its detail. This experience of the actual building, as opposed to studying photographs and drawings proved the
most useful of activities. It prompted a new and deeper level of discussion among the members of the jury, and gave
a greater level of credibility to the Jurys decisions.
Because of the geographical spread of the buildings to be visited, the task of the Jury was both onerous and time
consuming. Travelling conditions were often difficult and the shorter hours of daylight in the month of October
presented particular challenges.
Nevertheless, it cannot be underestimated how important and valuable the actual visits to the individual building
were. Initial opinions based on the photographic and graphic submissions were often changed radically when
members of the jury stood within the space, and experienced the full impact of the building and the design
intention behind it at close quarters.
Generally the quality of the architectural work was very high, reaching exceptional levels in some cases. The jury
was conscious of the difficulty in making comparisons and judgements about buildings, found in the same category
which differentiated substantially both in function and scale. For example, comparing the arena in Cluj with a
sculptural project like the tower within a tower was extremely difficult, as, although they are both public buildings,
the scale, nature and the problems encountered in their realisation could be more different. In future, it may be
necessary to consider sub-sections based on scale and complexity in some of the existing categories. This is a topic
which should be discussed and debated.
The lecture series and exhibition which accompanied the work of the various juries and dealing with many
aspects of architecture, urban design, interior architecture, photography and design generally proved to be
most informative and interesting. The coinciding of some of these lectures with studio programmes within the
University of Architecture meant that many students missed the opportunity to attend and experience some of these
fascinating events.
The BNAB was a full, rich and complex event. The organisers of the BNAB 2012 are to be congratulated for the
enormous effort they have clearly dedicated, and the consequential recognition that such an event brings to the
architectural profession and to those involved in architecture, design, and the education of these disciplines in
Romania.

Profesor emerit, coala de Arhitectur din Dublin, Irlanda
BNAB 2012 (Bienala naional de arhitectur Bucureti) din octombrie / noiembrie anul acesta a oferit o
oportunitate minunat membrilor Juriului de a experimenta arhitectura contemporan din Romnia.
Proiectele de arhitectur care au fost vizitate au variat de la lucrri gospodreti foarte modeste, proiecte pentru
cldiri comerciale i publice, pn la proiecte foarte mari care au avut un impact semnificativ asupra structurii
urbane i mediului nconjurtor n care sunt situate.
Procesul de evaluare a implicat vizitarea fiecrei cldiri pentru a-i nelege pe deplin contextul, realizarea
arhitectural i detaliile. Experiena cldirii concrete, spre deosebire de studierea fotografiilor i a desenelor, s-a
dovedit a fi cea mai util dintre activiti, determinnd un nivel nou i mai profund al discuiilor ntre membrii
juriului i aducnd un plus de credibilitate n ceea ce privete deciziile acestora.
Avnd n vedere aria larg de rspndire geografic a cldirilor care urmau s fie vizitate, sarcina juriului a fost
n egal msur costisitoare i consumatoare de timp. Condiiile de cltorie au fost adesea dificile iar perioada
scurt de expunere la lumin natural specific lunii octombrie a adugat un plus de dificultate.
Cu toate acestea, nu putem subestima importana i valoarea vizitelor efective la fiecare cldire n parte. Primele
impresii care au avut la baz fotografiile i desenele prezentate s-au schimbat adesea radical atunci cnd membrii
juriului au vzut cu ochii lor spaiul respectiv i au simit impactul direct al cldirii i inteniile care au stat la baza
proiectului. n general, calitatea proiectelor de arhitectur a fost foarte ridicat, n unele cazuri atingnd chiar
un nivel excepional. Juriul a fost contient de dificultatea de a face comparaii i judeci privind cldirile din
aceeai categorie, care se deosebeau n mod substanial din punct de vedere funcional sau prin scar. De exemplu,
compararea arenei din Cluj cu un proiect sculptural de tipul turn n turn a fost extrem de dificil ntruct, dei
ambele sunt cldiri publice, scara, natura i problemele ntmpinate n realizarea acestora ar fi putut fi mai
diferite. n viitor, ar fi necesar ca sub-seciunile s fie considerate pe baza scrii i complexitii n unele dintre
categoriile existente. Acesta este un subiect care ar trebui discutat i dezbtut.
Seria de prelegeri i expoziia asociate activitii membrilor juriului i care au tratat multe aspecte legate de
arhitectur, design urban, arhitectur de interior, fotografiile i proiectarea n general s-au dovedit a fi cele mai
informative i interesante. Desfurarea acestor prelegeri simultan cu orele de atelier din cadrul Universitii de
Arhitectur a nsemnat c muli studeni au ratat oportunitatea de a participa i de a experimenta multe dintre
aceste evenimente fascinante.
B.N.A.B. 2012 a fost un eveniment deplin, bogat i complex. Organizatorii trebuie felicitai pentru efortul enormpe
care n mod evident l-au depus i pentru recunoaterea pe care un astfel de eveniment o aduce profesiei de arhitect
i celor implicai n arhitectur, design i studierea acestor discipline n Romnia.

Having the opportunity to be a member of the jury of the Biennale National of Architecture, was a great occasion
to get in touch with todays prominent architectural world in Romania.
The organization of the Biennale decided that the jury could visit all those buildings that have reached the final
stage of screening, which were considered appropriate. This approach to the selection of the winners, which is
not the usual biennial and other architectural competitions for the time and effort involved, while this led us to
an amazing journey that could be called architect-venture and that allowed us to know the architecture the best
way you can, that is to visit and see it in person, appreciate its setting, its spatiality, the details, which usually in a
photograph is elusive.
There were more than 20 buildings that we had a chance to visit, located in cities like Bucharest, Brasov and Cluj-
Napoca and some rural places with great beauty, which sometimes is difficult to access. We were immersed in the
cultural image, where the main way of knowing art and architecture is often limited to the images that the media
transmits us, it was enormously instructive recovering direct confrontation with the buildings, enjoying and tasting
them alive and not delayed through nice, but sometimes misleading photographs.
We had the occasion to feel the brilliance and quality of architecture of public and productive work. From large-
scale works, such as stadiums and office buildings, to medium and small scales to production sites, all have a
commitment to excellence is reflected in its implementation in place, in search of space, the resolution of the
program, the design and the quality of care and construction details.
The situation was different with the category of housing. Very few were collective housing buildings presented to
the Biennial and also small and very exclusive those submitted as individual homes. The collective homelessness,
housing and even public advocacy, is possibly an indicator of time of low economic activity and architecture in the
country. We cannot do anything but regret this lack of leaves orphaned because of architectural production in
Romania. On the other hand, and paradoxically, the examples presented individual home to the Biennale showed
a tendency to greatness and the surplus in contrast to the virtual absence of public housing. Surfaces and volumes of
some past excesses and incorporating idioms and architectural design tell us of other national reality is interpreted
through the houses chosen by certain strata of society. The jury, as a manifesto, decided to award the prize to a
humble dwelling house very low budget which recycled prefabricated materials belonging to a common past.
We cannot end this little reflection without mentioning social projects, which will volunteer in the recovery of the
city, as is the case of Matache Urban Regeneration Plan.
Finally we congratulate the organization and the Commissioner of the Biennale for the excellent work done in an
event of such importance.

Calitatea mea de membru al juriului n cadrul Bienalei Naionale de Arhitectur a nsemnat un bun prilej de a face
cunotin cu breasla arhitecilor din Romnia din ziua de azi.
Comitetul de organizare a Bienalei a decis ca juriul s viziteze toate acele cldiri care au ajuns n etapa final
de examinare i care au ntrunit cerinele. Aceast abordare privind modul de selecie a ctigtorilor, care nu se
ncadreaz n mod obinuit n tipologia competiiilor n arhitectur bienale sau de alt natur, din punct de vedere
al timpului i efortului alocat, ne-a condus ntr-o uluitoare cltorie ce s-ar putea numi o aventur n domeniul
arhitectural i care ne-a facilitat cunoaterea arhitecturii n cel mai bun mod, adic prin vizitarea construciilor i
examinarea lor la faa locului, aprecierea amplasrii, spaialitii, detaliilor lor, care adesea nu pot fi observate
ntr-o fotografie.
Ni s-a oferit ocazia de a vizita peste 20 de cldiri aflate n Bucureti, Braov, Cluj-Napoca i n cteva zone rurale
de o rar frumusee, adesea greu de gsit n alt parte. Ne-amcufundat n privelitile cu valoare cultural, n ciuda
faptului c principala cale de a cunoate arta i arhitectura se limiteaz deseori la imaginile pe care mass-media ni
le prezint. A fost extremde instructiv s experimentmn mod direct frumuseea cldirilor, s ne bucurmde ele,
s le admirm pe viu i s nu ne lsm captivai de fotografii plcute la vedere, dar adesea amgitoare.
Amavut prilejul de a simi strlucirea i calitatea arhitecturii lucrrilor publice i de creaie. Toate lucrrile, pornind
de la cele realizate la scar mare, precum stadioane i cldiri de birouri, pn la cele la scar mic i antiere de
creaie, sunt devotate excelenei, acest lucru reflectndu-se n implementarea lor pe un amplasament, n cutarea
spaiului adecvat, stabilirea unui anumit program, schiele i preocuparea sporit pentru detaliile construciei.
Situaia a fost puin diferit n ceea ce privete categoria locuinelor. La aceast Bienal, au fost prezentate doar
cteva cldiri de apartamente, iar casele individuale supuse analizei au fost de asemenea mici i puine. Numrul
persoanelor fr locuine, susinerea sczut a sectorului imobiliar i chiar susinerea public pot fi un indicator al
unei insuficiente activiti economice i de construcie n aceast ar. Nu putemdect s ne exprimmregretul fa
de aceast lips care are legtur i cu cei ce rmn orfani din cauza lipsei construciilor n Romnia. Pe de alt
parte i n mod paradoxal, exemplele de case individuale prezentate n cadrul acestui eveniment aveau tendina
spre extravagan i exces, n contrast cu absena real a locuinelor pentru majoritatea populaiei. Suprafeele
analizate i cantitatea unor excese cu rdcini n trecut, ncorporarea obiectelor i schiele arhitecturale ne arat o
alt realitate la nivel naional, i anume cea legat de locuinele alese de persoane aparinnd anumitor straturi
ale societii. Ca un manifest, juriul a hotrt s premieze o locuin modest, n care, cu un buget redus, s-au
reciclat prefabricate aparinnd unui trecut comun tuturor romnilor.
Nu putem ncheia aceast expunere fr s menionm proiectele sociale care vor ajuta la reabilitarea oraului,
cum ar fi, de exemplu, Planul pentru Regenerare Urban a zonei Matache Bucureti.
n ncheiere, felicitm Comisarul Bienalei i echipa organizatoric pentru eforturile deosebite depuse n cadrul
unui eveniment de asemenea importan.

Professor at University of Curitiba, Brasil
Countries, as well as their people, become known all over the world by a triad. For Italy, we have pizza, opera and
Sophia Loren. For Brazil it is beach, carnival and soccer. And for Romania of course it is Dracula, Nadia
Comneci and Ceauescu. To sum it up: Italy is sensuality, Brazil is irresponsibility and Romania is a weird place.
We dont believe in stereotypes, and we had an enormous curiosity about the region generally known as the
European East and about this country with a shape so similar to our state of Paran.
Our participation in the BNAB was a great opportunity to quench, in a conclusive way, this curiosity. This perfectly
organized event gave us the opportunity to be in contact with one of the greatest artistic expressions in every
civilization: its architecture.
We learned about the extraordinary spatial historic formulations: bisericas, monasteries, castles and fortifications
in the Romanian territory. We also learned about the existence of many wonderful cities not only Bucharest
one of the most charming European capitals, but also the fascinating Timisoara, Cluj-Napoca, Brasow, Alba Iulia
and this jewel among cities, Sibiu.
We also learned that Romanians are proud of this heritage, which is being restored, valorized, and curated with
ability and professionalism. From the Dacians to modernity, a great heritage is being studied and redeemed.
And architectural modernity in Romania shows demonstrates that this rich heritage is well understood and
maintained. We saw surprising use of iron and metal; respectful use of wood, and competence in the use of energy
and natural resources. This is a widespread attitude among established professionals and students being prepared
to work in the field at Ion Mincu University.
This contact with professionals, sponsored by the BNAB, has revealed an enormous variety of ways of thinking and
doing good architecture.
Back to typecasting: we must understand stereotypes in their symbolic contours.
Walter Benjamin says that every document of culture is also a document of barbarism. Ceausescu was a cruel
dictator, but the world is full of cruel dictators that did not leave behind grand emblematic buildings to their
countries. Nadia Comaneci worked and trained hard for years to stun the world with her performance in Montreal.
And Vlad Dracul, well, beyond the legends of cruelty, remains a king that saved Europe from a Turkish invasion.
We hope you Romanians will excuse us for touching upon these sensitive points for your country. We Brazilians feel
offended when somebody talks about Romania using the triad as much as when our country is identified like this:
Oh, I know everything about you Brazilians! Pele, Copacabana, carnival
When somebody does this, we remember the monasteries and cities in the Carpathian Mountains. We remember
the cordiality and good manners of the Romanian people. We remember all the intense cultural life in Bucharest.
We remember the excellent architecture that has been produced and is being done now
To sum it up: we feel like RomaniansThank you for all this BNAB Romania!

rile, ca i oamenii lor, devin cunoscui peste tot n lume, printr-o triad. Pentru Italia, avem pizza, opera
i pe Sophia Loren. Pentru Brazilia exist plaja, carnavalul i fotbalul. Iar pentru Romnia exist, desigur,
Dracula, Nadia Comneci i Ceauescu. Pentru a rezuma: Italia este senzualitate, Brazilia este iresponsabilitate
i Romnia este un loc ciudat. Noi nu credemn stereotipuri i amavut o curiozitate enorm relativ la regiune, n
general cunoscut drept Europa de Est i despre aceast ar cu o form att de asemntoare cu statul nostru
Paran.
Participarea noastr la B.N.A.B. a fost o mare oportunitate de a potoli, ntr-un mod concludent, aceast curiozitate.
Aceste eveniment perfect organizat ne-a oferit oportunitatea s venim n contact cu una dintre cele mai mari
expresii artistice pentru fiecare civilizaie: arhitectura sa.
Am aflat despre extraordinarele formulri istorice spaiale: biserici, mnstiri, castele i fortificaii de pe teritoriul
Romniei. Am nvat de asemenea despre existena multor orae minunate nu doar Bucureti, una dintre
cele mai fermectoare capitale europene, dar i despre fascinantele Timioara, Cluj-Napoca, Braov, Alba Iulia i
aceast bijuterie ntre orae, numit Sibiu. Am aflat de asemenea, c romnii sunt mndri de acest patrimoniu,
care este restaurat, valorizat i gestionat cu abilitate i profesionalism. De la daci la modernitate este studiat i
restaurat un mare patrimoniu.
i modernitatea arhitectural n Romnia demonstreaz faptul c acest bogat patrimoniu este bine neles i
pstrat. Am vzut utilizarea surprinztoare a fierului i metalului; utilizarea respectuoas a lemnului i
competena n uzul energiei i resurselor naturale. Aceasta este o atitudine larg rspndit printre profesionitii i
studenii pregtii s lucreze n domeniu, la Universitatea Ion Mincu.
Acest contact cu profesionitii, sponsorizat de ctre B.N.A.B., a dezvluit o varietate enorm de modaliti de
gndire i de a face arhitectur bine.
napoi la typecasting: trebuie s nelegem stereotipurile n contururile simbolice ale acestora.
Walter Benjamin spune c fiecare document de cultur este de asemenea un document de barbarism. Ceauescu
a fost un dictator crud, dar lumea este plin de dictatori cruzi care nu au lsat n urma lor cldiri grandioase
emblematice pentru rile lor. Nadia Comneci a lucrat i s-a antrenat din greu ani de zile pentru a uimi lumea
cu performana sa la Montreal. Iar Vlad Dracul, mai mult dect oricare dintre legendele de cruzime, rmne un
domnitor care a salvat Europa de la o invazie a turcilor.
Sperm ca, voi romnii, ne vei scuza pentru atingerea acestor puncte sensibile pentru ara dumneavoastr. Noi,
brazilienii, ne simim ofensai atunci cnd cineva vorbete despre Romnia folosind triada, la fel de mult ca
atunci cnd ara noastr este identificat astfel: Oh, tiu totul despre brazilieni! Pele, Copacabana, carnaval
Atunci cnd cineva face asta, ne amintim de mnstirile i oraele din munii Carpai. Ne amintim cordialitatea
i bunele maniere ale poporului romn. Ne amintim toat viaa cultural intens din Bucureti. Ne amintim
arhitectura excelent ce a fost produs i este produs i n prezent
Pentru a rezuma: ne simim de parc am fi romniMulumim pentru toate acestea B.N.A.B. Romnia!

First and foremost, I would like to assert that participation in an event as the ARCHITECTURE BIENNALE is to each
architect an honour and a unique experience.
On the other hand, I think the 2012 BNAB which took place in Bucharest met all the standards to be successful:
from the perspective of its organization and achievement.
I think this result is firstly due to the organizations which were fully supported from the very beginning (I
particularly refer to the UAR and Ion Mincu University), and to their people/members.
Separately, I would like to mention their entire support from the beginning to the end of this event. In addition,
I should state: the works quality, the scheme of the works assessment, the choice of exhibition and activity
venue for the evaluation commission (the history museum building situated in the commercial historic centre of
Bucharest), the events along with the works exhibition and assessment and especially the hospitality of people, of
our colleagues in Romania under the (material and moral) support of the BNAB Commissioner, Professor Architect
Cristina Olga Gociman, Ph.D.
Along with all the other things, I would like to express my satisfaction and my personal gratitude to everyone. I
hope our collaboration will go on in the future.

Pentru nceput, a vrea s confirmc pentru fiecare arhitect, participarea la un eveniment ca BIENALA ARHITECTURII
este o onoare i, n acelai timp, o experien unic.
Pe de alt parte, cred c BNAB 2012 a avut toate atuurile succesului, la nivelul organizrii i realizrii.
Cred c acest succes se datoreaz n primul rnd organizaiilor care, de la bun nceput pn n ultimul moment,
i-au oferit tot sprijinul (m refer, mai ales, la U.A.R. i la Universitatea Ion Mincu), dar i oamenilor, membrilor
acestora.
De asemenea, trebuie s menionez calitatea lucrrilor, schema organizrii evalurii lor, alegerea amplasamentului
de expoziie i de lucru al comisiei de evaluare, cldirea Muzeului Naional de Istorie a Romniei, situat n
centrul istoric comercial al Bucuretiului, evenimentele paralele cu expoziia i, mai ales, ospitalitatea oamenilor, a
colegilor din Romnia, sub coordonarea i sprijinul material i moral al comisarului BNAB, profesor doctor arhitect
Cristina Olga Gociman.
Pe lng toate acestea, a vrea s transmit tuturor satisfacia i mulumirile mele, s-mi exprim dorina de a
continua colaborarea dintre noi.

I was honored to be part of the jury of the 2012 BNAB architecture biennale for the first time.
With projects selected during three previous biennales, I noticed how in each of its edition, this event of our
fellowship is better and better organized, having international juries, specific regulations including new sections,
also involving other professional architecture organizations, creation unions, the mass media.
I can state that the tenth anniversary edition of the 2012 BNAB took place successfully during a month due to good
organization coordinated by a vivacious commissioner and due to the conception of an ample program including
any events associated to the contest exhibition of projects.
I would particularly like to outline that by means of provisions of the biennale regulation, the jury members were
given the opportunity to get involved easily, democratically in the contest development and related events.
Thus, the regulation was analyzed online by all the members of the jury who made observations which were
subsequently accepted after their analysis undertaken by a curators team.
The judgments were made individually by each jury member, online, according to a specially created full program
which allowed the visualization of posters and all the pictures/plans/drawings under separate folders; the grades
were registered in a nominal table accessed only by means of a personal password.
Along with other colleagues, members in the juries of other sections, I participated in a marathon-like trip on the
following route: Bucharest Horezu Sibiu Timisoara Alba Iulia Cluj Napoca Cmpia Turzii Sighioara
Braov Bucharest, to pay visits to the locations of the potential nominated projects in the contest.
The jury members were invited to the conference with the title Quality in Architecture with brief introductions
about the quality of works they designed. For the conference, I chose the theme: Public, squares, supporting walls,
urban stairs, parking plots in the historic centre of Sibiu.
Another opportunity provided to the jury members was the organization of their own personal exhibitions. The
organizers chose from the suggested titles In the backstage of urban rebuilding in the historic centre of Sibiu/
Hermannstadt.
And another provision in the Biennale regulation that I benefited fromas a jury member was the chance to submit
projects in contest sections different from the one whose jury I was a member of, namely section Architecture by
Pictures with my project called Charm of Sibius architectural heritage depicted in drawings and paintings.
I felt good in all my participations in the 2012 BNAB, beside the organizers, jury members, friends and my former
classmates.

Am fost onorat s fac parte pentru prima dat din juriul bienalei de arhitectur B.N.A.B. 2012.
Avnd proiecte selectate n trei bienale anterioare, am observat cum, de la o ediie la alta, acest eveniment al
breslei noastre a fost din ce n ce mai bine organizat, cu jurii internaionale, regulamente specifice cuprinznd noi
seciuni, implicnd i alte organizaii profesionale de arhitectur, uniuni de creaie, mass media.
Pot afirma c a 10-a ediie aniversar a B.N.A.B. 2012 s-a desfurat, timp de o lun de zile, cu mare succes,
datorit bunei organizri coordonate de un energic comisar i conceperii unui program amplu, ce a cuprins, n
afara expoziiei concurs de proiecte, o multitudine de evenimente asociate acesteia.
A dori s subliniez, n mod deosebit, cum membrilor juriului li s-au creat, prin prevederile regulamentului de
desfurare a Bienalei, condiiile implicrii nemijlocite, democratice, n desfurarea concursului i a evenimentelor
conexe.
Astfel, regulamentul a fost supus on-line analizrii tuturor membrilor juriului care au fcut observaii acceptate
ulterior, n urma analizei echipei curatoriale.
Jurizarea s-a fcut individual de ctre fiecare membru al juriului, on-line, pe un program foarte complet, special
conceput, care a permis vizualizarea panourilor i a tuturor fotografiilor/planurilor,desenelor, n fiiere separate;
notele trecndu-se ntr-un tabel nominal accesat numai cu parol personal.
Am participat, alturi de ali colegi membri, n juriile altor seciuni, la o excursie-maraton pe traseul Bucureti
Horezu Sibiu Timioara Alba Iulia Cluj Napoca Cmpia Turzii Sighioara Braov Bucureti,
vizitnd amplasamentele proiectelor din concurs candidate la nominalizare.
Membrii juriilor au fost invitai s participe la conferina Calitatea n arhitectur, cu scurte prezentri despre
calitatea lucrrilor pe care le-au proiectat. Am ales pentru conferin tema: Piee publice, ziduri de sprijin, scri
urbane, parcri din centrul istoric Sibiu.
O alt oportunitate oferit membrilor juriului a fost organizarea unei expoziii personale. Din oferta propus,
organizatorii au ales Culisele renovrilor urbane n centrul istoric Sibiu/Hermannstadt.
O ultim prevedere a regulamentului Bienalei, de care am beneficiat ca membru al juriului, a fost posibilitatea
prezentrii n concurs cu lucrri la alt seciune dect cea pe care am jurizat-o, respectiv la seciunea Arhitectura
prin imagine cu proiectul Farmecul patrimoniului arhitectural sibian surprins in desene i acuarele.
La toate participrile legate de B.N.A.B. 2012 m-am simit bine lng organizatori, membri ai juriului, prieteni,
foti colegi de grup.

The impressive scale of the 2012 Bucharest National Architecture Biennale was rendered by the multitude and
diversity of contest sections, by the unique and genuine character of themes and by the quality of projects submitted.
It may be surprising at first sight to come across a visual communication section within an architecture contest. If
ingenious, new, surprising, original architecture is presented through image, then the architectural image offered
an interesting, appealing section to the audience.
The Bucharest National Architecture Biennale proved to be a cultural event that not only envisages architects and
people interested in architecture, but also addresses the entire society. Solutions for private projects or large scale
rehabilitation projects and solutions for historic or modern public spaces, all refer to the society in its entirety. The
organizers idea of including the sections called Architecture by Words and Architecture by Views rank the BNAB
as an event of cultural dialogues.
Ph.D. Vlad Eftenie
Assistant Professor Ion Mincu University of Architecture and Urbanism, Bucharest, Romania
In my opinion, it was one of the best organized editions of the Architecture Biennale, both from the perspective
of how the internal communication took place and from the perspective of substance, diversity and quality of
architectural products in its various forms, as it was seen from the outside. In my capacity as a jury member, I
was always in touch with the development of specific stages in order to properly manage the activities with my
commission colleagues. As an architect, I was opened a wide range of options from exhibitions to valuable
professional conferences and meetings. There was certainly an increase in the quality and accuracy of the general
publics perception referring to the architectural phenomenon in which is absolutely extremely worth praising.

Amploarea impresionant a Bienalei Naionale de Arhitectur Bucureti 2012 s-a constituit prin multitudinea i
diversitatea seciunilor de concurs, prin ineditul i originalitatea tematicilor i prin calitatea proiectelor prezentate.
Poate la prima vedere este surprinztor s ntlnim o seciune de comunicare vizual n cadrul unui concurs
de arhitectur. Dac imaginea este cea care ne face cunoscut arhitectura ingenioas, inedit, surprinztoare,
original, atunci imaginea pus n slujba arhitecturii a oferit publicului o seciune interesant i seductoare.
Bienala Naional de Arhitectur Bucureti s-a dovedit a fi un eveniment cultural ce vizeaz nu doar arhitecii i
publicul interesat de arhitectur, ci ntreaga societate. De la soluiile oferite unor persoane private, pn la proiecte
ample i soluii de reabilitare a unor spaii publice istorice sau moderne, soluiile i proiectele prezentate vizeaz
societatea n ansamblul su. Ideea organizatorului de a include seciunile Arhitectura prin cuvnt i Arhitectura
prin imagine poziioneaz B.N.A.B. ca eveniment al dialogului cultural.

Din punctul meu de vedere a fost una dintre cele mai bine organizate ediii ale Bienalei de Arhitectur, n ceea
ce privete desfurarea comunicrii interne i consistena, diversitatea i calitatea produsului de arhitectur sub
diversele sale forme, aa cum a fost el privit din exterior. Ca membru al juriului am fost permanent la curent cu
desfurarea etapelor specifice pentru o bun gestionare a activitilor alturi de colegii din comisii. Ca arhitect
mi-a fost deschis o palet vast de opiuni de la expoziii la conferine i ntlniri profesionale valoroase. S-a
realizat cu siguran o cretere a calitii i acuitii percepiei publicului larg cu privire la fenomenul arhitectural
din Romnia, ceea ce este, cu siguran, extrem de ludabil.

A Biennale is part of major cultural events as it can polarize local, national, international concerns.
Its public goal generally and largely corresponding to the reality is opening an artistic sector to the public.
Secondly, many arguments related to rankings, trends, people or groups may arise.
To some let us take the most innocent example it is about high-level elitist celebrity. I cannot forget the
sarcasm of an architect fellow from Geneva when the S.I.A (Socit des Ingnieurs et des Architects Suisses)
proposed that an Annual Architecture Award be granted: Let us grant one more medal to one of us. In real
terms, there are more than just a few who find themselves rewarded for their true merits or rankings they have
had over the years. Still, let us not forget that a Biennale is part of life and fortunately life is not monochrome.
Now, let me go back to the truly important aspects.
The ability to deeply drain a significant territorial area is primordial. Besides organizational efforts, the
guarantee of a jury being competent and upright may invite to certain participation. The jury also has a difficult
but emulous role to understand and outline by the awards they grant what is essential in the relationship
between architecture and the society generating it.
The winning works are not only interesting in themselves, but they also represent, each in its own specific field,
issues to be investigated at general, yet urgent level.
I think it can be said that the 2012 BNAB successfully passed this exam.
At this moment, we are reaching what can be called the key point of an operation. The fellowship responsibly
submits its choices urbi et orbi. Although relatively anonymous until now, the works can show their entire value
only if they are joined by enough ways of making themunderstood, appreciated and loved. (Just, fair) marketing
can be fundamental. But unfortunately, this ultimate sprint does not always find one ready enough!
Knowing that the final buzz is from the perspective of efficiency, at least equal to the huge amount of work and
energy used previously, should the organizers start with the end?
Leaving my (arguably unfair) malice aside a great Biennale such as the BNAB is an event that cannot be
replaced in the emotions of a nations architecture.
Dr.arh.Nicolas Mircea Lupu
Profesor Honoris Causa al Universitii de Arhitectur i Urbanism Ion Mincu, Bucureti, Romnia
O Bienal face parte dintre manifestrile culturale majore, putnd polariza interese locale, naionale,
internaionale.
Mobilul su anunat care corespunde, n general, n mare msur, realitii este deschiderea unui sector
artistic spre marele public.
n subsidiar, pot avea loc confruntri de poziii, tendine, persoane, grupuri.
Pentru unii s lum cazul cel mai nevinovat este vorba de o celebrare elitist la scar mare. Nu pot uita
sarcasmul unui coleg arhitect genevez cnd S.I.A (Socit des Ingnieurs et des Architects suisses) a propus crearea
unui Premiu anual de arhitectur: s ne mai dm o mic medalie ntre noi. n realitate este mai mult de un
dramde adevr sub aparena cinismului dezabuzat. O amabil ceremonie unde unii i alii se gsesc recompensai
pentru merite reale sau poziii ocupate n timp. Dar s nu uitmc o Bienal face parte din via, iar viaa nu este,
din fericire, monocrom.
S revenim la aspectele cu adevrat importante.
Capacitatea de a drena n profunzime o arie teritorial reprezentativ este primordial. n afara eforturilor
organizatorice, garania competenei i probitii juriilor poate incita la o anumit participare. Este, de asemenea,
rolul dificil, dar stimulant, al juriului de a nelege i pune n eviden prin premiile pe care le acord ceea ce
este esenial n raporturile arhitecturii cu societatea care o genereaz.
Lucrrile premiate nu sunt numai interesante n sine, ele se nscriu, fiecare n domeniul su specific, ca teme de
aprofundat pe plan general, adesea urgent.
Se poate spune c B.N.A.B. 2012 a trecut cu bine acest examen.
Ajungem, n acest moment, la ceea ce putem numi punctul cheie al operaiei.
Responsabil, breasla prezint urbi et orbi alegerile sale. Scoase dintr-un relativ anonimat, operele pot s-i
afirme ntreaga valoare numai nconjurate de suficiente modaliti de a le face nelese, apreciate, iubite. Un
marketing (just, echitabil) este fundamental.
Din pcate, acest sprint final nu ne gsete totdeauna suficient pregtii!
tiind c buzzul ultim este cel puin egal, n termeni de eficacitate, enormei munci i energii desfurate n
prealabil, poate c organizatorii ar trebui s nceap cu partea final?
Lsnd maliiozitatea (fr ndoial, nedreapt) deoparte, o mare Bienal este cazul BNAB este un eveniment
de nenlocuit n rezonana arhitecturii unei naiuni.

The Biennale, an event in itself, has been another important moment in the lives of architects. I would like to
believe it heads towards the ideal of being an event in the world of Bucharests cultural elite, too. The location
chosen was a very good idea: it was on Calea Victoriei, close to pavements, easily accessed through several
doors. I wish it had been even more present on the outside by an arrangement on the stairs of Palatul Potelor,
meant to draw the attention of passers-by. The exhibitions were beautiful, yet only retrospective. However, they
were counterbalanced by the exhibition of projects submitted in the contest most of which were involved in the
contemporary direction of creativity.
Such contest participations were generally honorable. I was particularly surprised by the presence of publishing
works numerous, belonging to various genres and having high quality. Maybe those who hope that energies
come together at times of crisis and wait for better times are right.
PhD. Arch. Teodor Octavian Gheorghiu
Professor at Technical University Timioara, Romania, Faculty of Architecture
Being relatively in touch with the magnitude and content of Bucharest architecture biennales, the one held this year
seemed one of the richest and most diverse. I refer to the topics assumed by the designs and particularly to those
published. In this respect, I have a twofold comment to make:
-The number, diversity and quality of projects submitted at the Biennale are a great surprise and make one think
as long as it is known Romania has been going through a long crisis and its signs are especially visible in the
construction field. I understand this fact as the outcome of less hasty approaches. There may have been more time
for and, implicitly, less interest in quality.
- The number and diversity of themes, and the quality of products issued are an instance of normality with the
architects released from some of their daily tasks feeling the need for theoretical studies or research. Their
outcomes should be presumably visible after a certain period of time. From this point of view, I notice the themes
meant to recover historical events in the Romanian and foreign architectures, theoretical themes, current themes
(especially city planning activism), of approaching arts and archaeology. I do not think there is any field included
into or associated to urbanism or architecture that might have been missing.
The foregoing makes me a little more optimistic than I usually amwhen I think of ones resources for high-quality
architecture and urban planning. Generally speaking, the results acquired theoretically all those years should
add as some more quality to the practical ones which are already visible. Last but not least, the organizers (the
commissioner, work groups, institutions) deserve everyones admiration.

Bienala, ca manifestare, a fost din nou un eveniment n viaa noastr, a arhitecilor. A vrea s cred c se ndreapt
ctre idealul de fi un eveniment i n lumea elitei culturale bucuretene. Alegerea locului de desfurare a fost
o idee bun: pe Calea Victoriei, aproape de trotuar, cu acces direct prin cteva ui. Mi-ar fi plcut s fie mai
prezent i la exterior, printr-o amenajare pe treptele Palatului Potelor, care s atrag trectori. Expoziiile au
fost frumoase, dar numai retrospective. Ele au fost ns compensate de expoziia de proiecte participante la concurs,
cele mai multe angajate n direcia contemporan a creativitii.
Aceste participri la concurs au fost, n medie, onorabile. n mod special m-a surprins prezena publicaiilor
numeroase, din genuri diverse i de foarte bun calitate. Poate c au dreptate cei care sper c n timpul crizei se
adun energii care ateapt timpurile mai bune.
Dr. arh. Teodor Octavian Gheorghiu
Profesor la Universitatea Tehnic Timioara, Romnia, Facultatea de Arhitectur
Fiind relativ la curent cu amploarea i coninutul bienalelor de arhitectur bucuretene, cea de anul acesta mi s-a
parut una dintre cele mai bogate i de o remarcabil diversitate. M refer la subiectele asumate prin proiectare i,
mai ales, la cele publicate. Referitor la toate acestea, am un dublu comentariu:
- Numrul, diversitatea i calitatea proiectelor construite prezentate la Bienal sunt o mare surpriz
i ndeamn la reflecie, tiut fiind faptul c Romnia parcurge o perioad de criz ndelungat, semnele crizei
fiind ndeosebi vizibile n domeniul construciilor. Eu interpretez acest fapt ca rezultat al unor abordri mai puin
grbite. Probabil, a fost mai mult timp si, implicit, mai mare interes pentru calitate.
- Numrul, diversitatea temelor i calitatea produselor publicate reprezint un caz de normalitate,
arhitecii eliberai de unele dintre sarcinile cotidiene simind nevoia unor studii teoretice sau cercetri proprii.
Ar fi de presupus ca rezultatele lor s fie vizibile peste un timp oarecare. Din acest punct de vedere, remarc temele
de recuperare a unor episoade de istorie a arhitecturii romneti sau strine, temele teoretice, temele de mare
actualitate (activism mai ales urbanistic), apropierea de arte i arheologie. Nu cred c exist domeniu inclus sau
asociat urbanisticii i arhitecturii care s fi fost absent.
Cele spuse mai sus m fac s fiu ceva mai optimist dect sunt de obicei cnd m gndesc la resursele noastre pentru
o arhitectur i un urbanism de calitate. n mod normal, rezultatele obtinute teoretic n aceti ani ar trebui s se
adauge, ca un plus de calitate, celor practice, vizibile deja.
Nu n ultimul rnd, organizatorii (comisar, grupuri de lucru, instituii) merit un cuvnt de admiraie.

Report of the 2012 B.N.A.B. Commissioner
1. GENERAL INFORMATION
The 2012 BUCHAREST NATIONAL ARCHITECTURE BIENNALE (BNAB) is the most important professional event of
the architects fellowship which has been ceaselessly organized since 1994.
On the 26th of February 2011, during the period between the previous 2010 BAB Biennale until the 2012 BNAB,
the architects fellowship celebrated 120 years since the foundation of the Romanian Society of Architects and on
the 15th of October 2012 it will celebrate 120 years since the beginning of architecture higher education by the
National School of Architecture. In addition, celebrating 160 years since Ion Mincus birth and 100 years since his
death, his name being the name of the Bucharest University of Architecture and Urbanism, in the Mincu Year, marks
the year 2012 even more.
In this respect, the Senate upon the Commissioners proposal approved the theme of the biennale, namely 120
Years of Architectural Professional Organization and Higher Education.
The Biennale focused on the heritage values of architectural spaces and on the chances to improve life quality by
architecture, urbanism, restoration, indoor architecture, product architecture. Being aware that the progress of
built spaces is directly influenced by the interaction among authorities, architects and beneficiaries, the organizers
wanted to create an interactive platform for the communication among such players.
This Biennale aimed at inviting direct partners, namely all the professional organizations, specialty higher
education institutions in the fields of architecture, urbanism, restoration, indoor architecture, product architecture,
landscape in Romania.
Defining a highly performing built environment meant to meet the needs of direct beneficiaries and of the
community required the presence of public institutions involvement, local and central administrations concern,
regulation and coordination bodies engagement in specialty activities.
A work of architecture, urban design, restoration, indoor architecture, product architecture, landscape cannot turn
into something real without the contribution of specialists such as: design engineers of structures and installations,
construction engineers, economists, material and service suppliers which make them partners.
The BNAB 2012 has been a complex program made up of 8 exhibitions, 3 professional conferences, 8 theme
seminars, and many events that took place during 2 years since its opening the events are organized in
Bucharest, in county centers and foreign cultural offices meant in this context to celebrate 120 years of architectural
professional organization and higher education in Romania.

BIENALA NAIONAL DE ARHITECTUR BUCURETI 2012 (B.N.A.B.) a fost i este cel mai important eveniment
profesional al breslei arhitecilor organizat nentrerupt din 1994.
n intervalul dintre precedenta Bienal BAB 2010 i B.N.A.B. 2012, breasla arhitecilor a srbtorit 120 de ani de
la nfiinarea Societii Arhitecilor Romni pe 26 februarie 2011 i 120 de ani de la nfiinarea nvmntului
superior de arhitectur prin coala Naional de Arhitectur pe 15 octombrie 2012. Totodat, anul 2012 a fost
proclamat Anul Mincu, avnd n vedere aniversarea n acest an a 160 de ani de la naterea i 100 de ani de
la moartea lui Ion Mincu, cel al crui nume l poart cu mndrie Universitatea de Arhitectur i Urbanism din
Bucureti.
Lund n consideraie toate aceste evenimente care au marcat anul 2012, la propunerea comisarului, Senatul a
aprobat ca tem a Bienalei 120 de ani de organizare profesional i de nvmnt superior de arhitectur.
Bienala s-a concentrat pe valorile patrimoniale ale spaiului arhitectural i pe posibilitile de ameliorare a
calitii vieii prin arhitectur, urbanism, restaurare, arhitectur de interior, design de produs. Contieni de faptul
c evoluia spaiului construit este direct influenat de interaciunea dintre autoriti, proiectani i beneficiari,
organizatorii au dorit crearea unei platforme interactive de comunicare ntre aceti actori.
Aceast Bienal i-a propus ca toate organizaiile profesionale, toate instituiile de nvmnt superior de profil
de arhitectur, urbanism, restaurare, arhitectur de interior, design de produs, peisagistica din Romnia s
participe ca parteneri direci.
Edificarea unui mediu construit performant care s satisfac i nevoile beneficiarului direct i pe cele ale
comunitii nu poate exista fr implicarea instituiilor statului, a administraiei centrale i locale, a organismelor
de reglementare i de coordonare a activitii de profil.
O oper de arhitectur, de design urban, restaurare, arhitectur de interior, design de produs, peisagistica nu poate
deveni realitate fr aportul altor specialiti: ingineri proiectani de structur, de instalaii, ingineri constructori,
economiti, furnizori de materiale i servicii, ceea ce i-a transformat n parteneri.
B.N.A.B. 2012 a fost un program cultural complex reunind 8 expoziii, 3 conferine profesionale, 8 seminarii
tematice i evenimente ce s-au desfurat pe durata a 2 ani de la lansare, evenimente organizate n Bucureti,
centre judeene i reprezentane culturale externe menite, n contextul menionat, s celebreze aniversarea a 120
de ani de organizare profesional i de nvmnt superior de arhitectur n Romnia.

1934 The Index of Clerk Architects working for the Government, counties and villages was drawn up. The
Index was organized by titles first and second class general inspector architects, first and second class
chief architects, first, second and third class ordinary architects and trainee architects. Four architects
Petre Antonescu, I. Ghika Budeti, V. tefnescu, Statie Ciortan, Paul Smrndescu were awarded the
title of first class general inspector architects.
The Corpus of Architects rejected the subscription within the Corpus of foreign architects (namely,
French architects) but after the intervention of the French Government which required the observance of
mutuality conditions, it decided to enroll themunder a special heading, respectively that of accredited
architects. A Commission to assess all the requests for enrolling in the category of accredited architects
is founded. The teaching staff of the Academy of Architecture ratified the Commissions works.
The Ethics Commission starts working by handling the first three definitive sanctions against fellow
architects Biliargiu, Seevald and Jean Monda. The Council debated the situation of architects that used
to sign design plans drafted illicitly. The Ethics Commission began to mediate the misunderstandings
among architects and apply sanctions, all shown in the Coprus Bulletin.
In the end of the year, the Association comprised 428 diplomat architects.
1935 The Index of Diplomat Architects was enriched by two new headings. The first category of accredited
architects included Marcel Iancu, Leonida Plmdeal, Grigore Cerchez (engineer by formation)
and Herman Clejan. The second category was included in the Additional Index of professionals with
limited rights and included chief architectural drawers, master builders, authorized builders, master
bricklayers and master carpenters.
The Corpus of Architects collaborated with town halls regarding the sanctions applied to architects for the
infringement of the building regulation, also regarding the implementation of the systematization
plan and the promotion of public architecture contests, whereas the Corpus Studies Office suggested
a standard content of municipal regulations, the Professional Code showing the duties, rights
and ethics of professional architects and the entrepreneurship for the Law of Public Architecture
Contests.
1936 The President of the Corpus delivered a speech to his colleagues where he emphasizes that the first
law should still serve the society; all we need is something that entirely depends on us architects and
that is consistency in our relations with the public and the authorities. We must impose a certain well-
defined conduct on ourselves and meet our obligations whatever it takes.
The Minister of Education and the Deanship of the Corpus of Architects provided the town halls and
county prefectures with the Official Index of Architects and some directions for the strict application of
decide introducerea lor ntr-o categorie aparte, cea a arhitecilor recunoscui. Se nfiineaz o Comisie

Arhitectur ratific lucrrile Comisiei;

aplica sanciuni, toate publicate n buletinul Corpului.
La sfritul anului, Corpul cuprinde 428 de arhiteci diplomai.
1935 Tabloul arhitecilor diplomai este completat cu dou categorii noi. n prima categorie, cea a
arhitecilor recunoscui, i gsimpe Marcel Iancu, Leonida Plmdeal, Grigore Cerchez (de formaie

Historical Background of the Romanian Higher Education in Architecture
In Romania, the first form of architectural education was legally established in 1864, based on an Act issued by
Alexandru Ioan Cuza, Prince of Moldavia and Walachia, as a part of the School of Bridges and Roads, Mines and
Architecture. However, due to the lack of funds and students, it was closed down shortly after. The first Romanian
architects studied mostly in Paris, at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts (the first DPLG being Ion Mincu in 1883) and their
enthusiastic undertaking lead to the true foundation of a school of architecture in Bucharest. Thus, in 1892 the
Romanian Society of Architects set up a private school of architecture under its authority. The Education Reform
in 1897 transformed the private school into the National School of Architecture (financed by the government)
as a part of the School of Fine Arts; in 1904 it became an independent institution named the Higher School of
Architecture. In 1931 the School was renamed the Academy of Architecture. The first law concerning architectural
education recognized its university level preserving yet the title of Academy; the same law regulated the use of
the title of architect and the professional practice. In 1938 the Academy of Architecture was integrated into the
Polytechnic School in Bucharest, under the name of the Faculty of Architecture. Additionally, a special program
dedicated to the study of urbanism functioned between 1943 and 1948.
In 1948 the Faculty of Architecture became independent under a new name - the Institute of Architecture. After a
short period of independence, it was incorporated to the recently created Civil Engineering Institute and renamed
Faculty of Architecture. In 1952 the Faculty became independent again, retaking the name of the Institute of
Architecture; by a decree issued in 1953, the Institute was named after Ion Mincu.
Until 2000 the institution functioned under the title of Ion Mincu Institute of Architecture. In 2000, by a decision of
the Academic Senate, the name was changed to Ion Mincu University of Architecture and Urban Planning, which
is still the current official denomination. This change was closely linked with the broadening of the educational
offer after 1990. Thus, two new Faculties were added to the old Faculty of Architecture in the last decades: the
Faculty of Urbanism in 1997 and the Faculty of Interior Design in 2003, each of them offering several degree
programs.
In 1970 were founded by law the Faculties of Architecture within the Polytechnical Universities from Cluj, Iai and
Timioara, nowadays Technical Universities.
In 1995 was founded the Faculty of Architecture within the private University of Spiru Haret.
Istoricul nvmntului superior de arhitectur din Romnia
n Romnia, nvmntul de Arhitectur a fost nfiinat n temeiul decretului domnitorului Alexandru Ioan Cuza
din 1 octombrie 1864, cu denumirea de coal de Poni i osele, de Mine i Arhitectur. Aceast prim secie
de arhitectur a disprut n scurt timp din lipsa fondurilor i a elevilor. n aprilie 1891, Comitetul de Conducere al
Societii Arhitecilor Romni a luat hotrrea s constituie, sub auspiciile sale, o coal particular de arhitectur.
Aprobat n august 1892 i condus de Ion Socolescu, coala de Arhitectur a Societii Arhitecilor Romni a
funcionat cu regularitate timp de 5 ani i a fost oficializat ca nvmnt de stat n decembrie 1897, prin reforma
nvmntului iniiat de ministrul Spiru Haret, sub denumirea de coala Naional de Arhitectur, secie a
colii de Belle-Arte din Bucureti. Ulterior, printr-o decizie ministerial, Arhitectura a fost scoas de sub tutela
colii de Belle Arte, n toamna anului 1904 crendu-se coala Superioar de Arhitectur, instituie independent
de nvmnt superior, cu un director propriu, n persoana lui Ermil Pangratti. nvmntul de arhitectur i-a
cptat pentru prima oar o lege a sa proprie n mai 1932.
Echivalnd-o n grad cu universitatea i pstrndu-i titulatura de Academia de Arhitectur pe care i-o dduse un
decret din 15 iulie 1931, noua lege reglementa, totodat, i dreptul purtrii titlului de arhitect i al exercitrii
profesiei de arhitect n Romnia. Academia de Arhitectur a funcionat sub rectoratul profesorului Petre Antonescu
pn n 1938. Din toamna anului 1938, fr s-i modifice profilul, dar regrupndu-i disciplinele, Academia de
Arhitectur a fost nglobat cu o titulatur nou - Facultatea de Arhitectur - n structura Politehnicii din Bucureti.
Pentru pregtirea specialitilor n construcia i reconstrucia oraelor a fost nfiinat i a funcionat pe lng
Facultatea de Arhitectur (1943-1948) o secie de specializare n Urbanism, sub conducerea profesorului Duiliu
Marcu.
Desprins din cadrul Politehnicii n urma reformei nvmntului din 1948, Facultatea de Arhitectur a devenit
instituie independent de nvmnt superior, cu titulatura Institutul de Arhitectur, cu sediul n strada Biserica
Enei nr. 3-5. Dup o scurt perioad de independen, n octombrie 1949 Institutul a fost ncorporat cu numele de
Facultatea de Arhitectur n Institutul de Construcii, nou nfiinat prin restructurarea Politehnicii.
Prin Hotrrea CC al PMR i a Consiliului de Minitri al RPR cu privire la construcia i reconstrucia oraelor i
organizarea activitii din domeniul arhitecturii din 14 noiembrie 1952, Facultatea a redevenit independent, sub
denumirea de Institutul de Arhitectur. Institutului i s-a conferit numele lui Ion Mincu prin Decretul nr. 147/1953.
Sub aceast titulatur instituia a funcionat pn n anul 2000 cnd, n urma hotrrii Senatului universitar,
denumirea a fost modificat n Universitatea de Arhitectur i Urbanism Ion Mincu, care este i n prezent
titulatura oficial.
Modificarea denumirii a fost impus de schimbrile care au avut loc n structura intern a instituiei, generate de
necesitatea diversificrii ofertei educaionale. Astfel, dac actuala Facultate de Arhitectur este continuatoarea
vechii coli de Arhitectur, dup 1990 au fost nfiinate dou noi faculti: n 1997, Facultatea de Urbanism, n
2003, Facultatea de Arhitectur de Interior.
n 1970 s-au nfiinat prin decret Facultile de Arhitectur din cadrul Universitilor Politehnice de la Cluj, Iai i
Timioara, n prezent Universiti Tehnice.
n 1995 s-a nfiinat Facultatea de Arhitectur din cadrul Universitii Spiru Haret sistem privat.

THE WORLD OF THE ROMANIAN ARCHITECTS ONE HUNDRED YEARS AGO
This year marks 107 years since the ARHITECTURA Magazine a landmark publication to the entire class of
Romanian architects emerged in the rich environment of the Romanian press in the early 20th century.
It was probably some time in late February, 1906 the year of the General Romanian Exposition held to celebrate
40 years of the highly inspired, widely providential reign of Charles the First. Those were times of extraordinary
cultural turmoil and outstanding economic boom meant to grab the young Romanian kingdom from the secular
inaction of the Byzantine patterns and safely guide it towards the highly civilized world of Western Europe.
To Romanian architects, there were years of grace when there were a lot of building activities and the people had
finally started to understand what their role in the borough was. During the first decade of the new century, they
used to ground their hopes on the meaningful gestures and deeds they had accomplished during the previous
decade.
As the years 1990 of the previous century had proven to be simply miraculous: never before in the history of this
profession had such a wide range of essential events ever happened or been about to happen as it did during those
years. The decade had begun with its first avant-garde magazine especially dedicated to the respective field and
to everyone willing to approach it: ANNALS OF ARCHITECTURE AND ARTS IT IS RELATED TO, issued in January
1890, under the careful guidance of Architect Ion Socolescu. The year 1891, which is famous in the history of the
corpus of architects, gathered the members who founded the ROMANIAN SOCIETY OF ARCHITECTS (R.S.A) on
the 26th of February by exceptional organizational efforts. A year and a half after this event, in August 1892, the
Society decided to set up a specialized school at its own expense: the first actual form of architecture education in
Romania. On the 17th of November the same year, the COMMISSION FOR HISTORIC MONUMENTS was founded by
a royal decree and soon after the Law for the preservation and rehabilitation of public monuments was approved.
In 1897, the architecture division belonging to the Fine Arts School in Bucharest was reestablished which was the
reason why the Societys school was closed down.
Therefore, it was a decade when architects had taken up writing about their profession, had managed to organize
themselves into a body of itself, they had a school where they passed on to the new generations everything they
had been learning with hard work, far from their country and moreover they had acquired a law to protect the
architectural heritage and not only it. That signified long years of torment and striving to them and to their
predecessors. So, they were entitled to be proud and confident in the century to come.
ARHITECTURA magazine until 1944
Publishing, Periodicity, Editorial Boards
Consequently, in 1906, twelve years after the ANNALS OF ARCHITECTURE ceased to be issued, during an absolute
rest period of the architects guild in terms of publishing, Architect George Sterian and a prestigious editorial
Lumea arhitecilor romni acum 100 de ani
Anul acesta se mplinesc 107 ani de cnd revista ARHITECTURA - publicaie de reper pentru breasla arhitecilor
romni - i fcea apariia n peisajul luxuriant al presei romneti a nceputului de secol XX.
Era, probabil, cndva pe la sfritul lunii februarie 1906: era anul Expoziiunii Generale Romne, dedicate
mplinirii a 40 de ani de inspirat i cu totul providenial domnie a regelui Carol I. Erau vremuri de extraordinar
fierbere cultural i de formidabil avnt economic, menite s smulg tnrul regat romnesc din torpoarea
secular a tiparelor bizantine i s l ndrepte cu pai siguri spre lumea evoluat a Occidentului european.
Pentru arhitecii romni erau ani de graie, n care se construia enorm iar lumea ncepuse s neleag care le era
rostul, locul i importana n cetate. n acest primdeceniu al unui nou secol, ei i ntemeiau speranele pe gesturile
i faptele fondatoare pe care le mpliniser n deceniul precedent.
Cci anii 90 ai secolului de dinainte se dovediser a face parte din zodia miracolelor: nicicnd altdat in istoria
profesiei nu se mai ntmplase i nu urma s se mai ntmple o asemenea concentrare de evenimente eseniale
pentru profesie ca n acei ani. Deceniul ncepuse avnd n avangarda sa o prim revist adresat cu dedicaie
domeniului i celor care voiau s l ptrund: ANALELE ARCHITECTUREI I ALE ARTELOR CU CARE SE LEAG,
aprut n ianuarie 1890 sub direcia arhitectului Ion Socolescu. Anul 1891, scris cu litere de aur n istoria breslei,
adunase la un loc membrii acesteia pentru ca la 26 februarie, printr-un excepional efort organizatoric, s fondeze
SOCIETATEA ARCHITECILOR ROMNI. La un an i jumtate de la eveniment, n august 1892, Societatea decide s
deschid pe cheltuial proprie o coal de profil: prima form efectiv de nvmnt de arhitectur din Romnia.

board supervised and issued in Bucharest ARHITECTURA Romanian Art Magazine. Although with many and
sometimes long delays, its pre-communist series was to become the symbol of the Romanian Society of Architects
for thirty-eight years, namely until 1944. The Society relied on some ideology that was evidently compliant with the
official one and it surely found the magazine as the proper environment to be defined and successful.
Keeping a constant pace of issues publishing to such a limited range of readers and with its budget depending on
how punctual the payments of contributions were made at the Societys cash-desk might have been a difficult test
to its editors. This is why the ARHITECTURA Magazine could not at all keep its periodicity promise. Thus, since it
was published quarterly, it managed to have only two issues per year only in 1906, 1916, 1919 and 1920, whereas
in 1924, 25, 26, 30 and 34, it issued only one volume annually. Still a single volume was hardly issued for the
period 1931-1933. Only in 1935 did they find again the strength to reorganize the magazine, bearing the sub-title
Quarterly Issue on Architecture and Urbanism of the Romanian Society of Architects, inaugurating a new series
to generate up to four volumes a year, amounting to the total number of twenty-four volumes until 1944 when it
ceased its pre-communist publication.
Therefore, the magazines life was divided by hiatuses and crises whose details and origins are to remain
unknown. Various articles on this topic published in the magazine describe the scanty participation of architects in
the Societys and the professions matters in general which is actually easy to explain in the context of rising social
demand, which refers to active professionals becoming too busy with works. It is already well-known that peace
and prosperity times are not favorable for architects in terms of creative writing. Therefore, they would rather
dedicate themselves to doing what they know best, namely to designing.
Program, Major Themes, Related Topics
It is certain that the frequent pauses and changes in the editorial teams along with changes in the magazines
configuration had visible consequences upon the content of the magazine which was often weak and conventional,
and lacked the necessary power to impose this profession in the cultural life of the time. Additionally, the content
could not shape progressive directions in architectural thinking of various times.
The magazines program evolves from tackling the social mission to educate public tastes by informing people
about Arts and Architecture to the mission of structuring and supporting the profession status as well as to the
mission of supplying in-field information by showing view trends, accomplishments and novelties in this field.
Whereas in 1906, the magazine was mainly oriented towards topics connected to artistic traditions and Romanian
architecture monuments, leaving a small part available for professional matters (it included only an architect-
related bill and a comment on the professions status and duties in its issues of 1906), the year 1916 was its
beginning in extending the latter category and comprising data on the Societys activities and architecture
theoretical notions.
Nevertheless, the irregularities in publishing made the presentation of the Societys activities quite incongruous
and left major areas unsolved. For this reason, the magazine cannot be regarded as a genuine body to represent
ntreruperi, seria sa ante-comunist va fi vreme de 38 de ani, adic pn n 1944, purttorul de cuvnt al Societii
Arhitecilor Romni, a crei ideologie, altminteri vizibil pliat pe aceea oficial, va gsi aici spaiu de definire i
afirmare.
Pesemne c meninerea unui ritm constant de apariie pentru o publicaie cu adresabilitate att de restrns i
cu un buget dependent de punctualitatea plii cotizaiilor la casieria Societii va fi reprezentat o grea piatr de
ncercare pentru redactori. Aa se face c revista ARHITECTURA nu reuete defel s-i respecte periodicitatea
promis. Astfel, publicaie trimestrial fiind, ea izbutete s scoat doar dou numere pe an i numai n 1906,
1916, 1919 i 1920, pentru ca n 1924, 25, 26, 30 i 34, s publice un singur volum anual. Pentru perioada
1931-1933, apare cu greu tot un singur volum. Abia n 1935, revista gsete fora s se reorganizeze i, cu subtitlul
Trimestrial de Arhitectur i Urbanistic al Societii Arhitecilor Romni, iniiaz o serie nou care va produce
1-4 volume pe an, n total 24 de volume pn n 1944, cnd i nceteaz apariia ante-comunist. *
Existena revistei este, aadar, fracturat de hiatusuri i crize, a cror origine ne va rmne necunoscut n
amnuntele sale. Articole pe aceasta tem, aprute n paginile ei, vorbesc despre o insuficient participare a
arhitecilor la problemele Societii, ale revistei i ale profesiunii n general, fapt explicabil, altminteri, n condiiile
unei comenzi sociale n cretere, deci a supra-aglomerrii cu lucrri a profesionitilor activi. Este deja un lucru tiut
c vremurile de pace i prosperitate nu sunt propice scrisului pentru breasla arhitecilor. Ei vor prefera atunci s se
dedice ndeletnicirii lor de cpti, i anume proiectarea.
Program, teme majore, subiecte colaterale
Cert este c desele ntreruperi i schimbrile de echipe redacionale, nsoite de modificri n configuraia revistei
au urmri vizibile asupra coninutului, care este de multe ori diluat i convenional, fr fora de a impune profesia
n viaa cultural a vremii i, cu att mai puin, de a contura direcii progresiste n gndirea de arhitectur din
diverse perioade.
Programul revistei evolueaz de la abordarea misiunii sociale de educare a gustului public, prin popularizarea
artelor i arhitecturii, la aceea de structurare i susinere a statutului profesiunii, precum i la cea de informare n
domeniu, prin prezentarea curentelor de opinie, a realizrilor i noutilor din interiorul su.
Dac la 1906, revista se orienteaz mai cu seam ctre subiecte legate de tradiiile artistice i monumentele
romneti de arhitectur, dedicnd un spaiu restrns problemelor profesionale (un proiect de lege al corpului
arhitecilor i un comentariu legat de starea profesiunii i ndatoririle arhitectului, n numerele din 1906), ncepnd
cu 1916, acest spaiu se extinde, ncepnd s cuprind date legate de activitatea Societii, precum i elemente de
teoria arhitecturii.
Cu toate acestea, apariia haotic a revistei face ca prezentarea activitii Societii s fie incongruent i s lase
neelucidate zone importante. Din acest motiv, revista nu poate fi considerat un veritabil organ de reprezentare
al Societii. Ea rmne o publicaie care, susinut material din fondurile acesteia i aprnd dup posibiliti,

the Society. It is nothing but a publication which, if materially supported fromits own funds and if issued according
to its capacity, was seemingly entitled to depict the generic matters and the current problems of the profession, yet
not at random, but in a way accepted by its sponsor.
The professions major themes in the order of appearance in the magazine are: shaping the status of architecture
and architects, field promotion, setting out laws to confine professional practice, and achieving the exact picture of
professionals that have the right to sign.
The same category of topics on the organization of ways to performsuch a profession includes the Societys and the
magazines repeated requests to make public competitions legal in relation with major governmental architectural
goals, the attempts to reassess the fees for various work types in the field, the set-up of status for architects as public
workers, the creation of a pension fund for old architects etc.
The topics approaching the theoretical aspects of this field, apart from trying to conceptualize the notions of art,
architecture, urbanism, style, composition etc. which generally and unfortunately takes place in a clumsy manner,
also include articles that debate on the stylistic and ideological issues of the time.
In this respect, the conflict between traditionalism and modernism finds itself in the structural axis of the content
especially after the First World War. A periodicals view is to remain the same with the Societys, therefore typically
imitating political discourses of the epoch.
This justifies the fact that the projects published in the magazine mirror the theoretical debates in the field in favor
of the nationalism the magazine pleads for, so that the true progress of the Romanian architectural phenomenon
cannot be perceived after reading through its content, especially between the two World Wars.
However, the projects and pictures of buildings of the time printed in the magazine represent a very important,
even comprehensive document regarding the respective period in the Romanian architecture and such a document
provides data on several architects lists of works and idiolect, on the changes in the structure of important programs
as for instance housing and, in general, on how to approach architecture from the perspective of most architects.
Another less quantitatively important section in the magazine refers to methods for the preservation of the
Romanian architectural heritage and to the issues concerning the monuments rehabilitation. The less apparent
introduction of this theme is explained by the fact that another famous publication at that time seized the topic,
the BULLETIN OF THE HISTORICAL MONUMENTS COMMISSION which, after its release in 1908, dedicated itself
exclusively to introducing topics on the national architectural heritage.
The section concerning urbanism, systematization and urban problems starts to acquire within the content its
presence which mainly mirrors the evolution of thinking in this field along with the state governments concern with
all its related matters. The first, very schematic discussion about urbanismand organization is found in the content
of the ANNALS OF ARCHITECTURE and envisages the administrative organization of the new state made up by
the unification of the Romanian Principalities. Another circumstance meant to bring these topics forth occurred
after the First World War once Romania had reunited, when the integrating enthusiasm of various players in the
government hierarchy was felt by the organization of contents on urban planning and systematization. Although
oricum, ci n viziunea acceptat de finanator.
Temele majore ale profesiunii, n ordinea n care apar acestea n revist, sunt: conturarea statutului arhitecturii
i al arhitectului, promovarea domeniului, ngrdirea prin legiferare a practicii profesionale i realizarea unui
tablou exact al profesionitilor cu drept de semntur.
n aceeai categorie de subiecte viznd organizarea modului de exercitare al profesiei se ncadreaz solicitrile
repetate ale Societii i ale revistei pentru legiferarea concursurilor publice privind obiectivele arhitecturale
majore ale statului, ncercrile de cuantificare a onorariilor pentru diferite categorii de lucrri din domeniu,
precizarea statutului arhitecilor funcionari la stat, crearea unui fond de pensii pentru arhitecii btrni .a.
n seciunea subiectelor ce iau n discuie aspectele teoretice ale domeniului, pe lng diferite ncercri de
conceptualizare a noiunilor de art, arhitectur, urbanism, stil, compoziie etc. care se realizeaz, n general, la un
nivel, din pcate, amatorist, apar i articole care pun n discuie problemele stilistice i ideologice ale momentului.
Pe aceast direcie, disputa dintre tradiionalism i modernism se constituie ca ax structurant a coninutului
revistei, mai cu seam dup primul rzboi mondial. Poziia periodicului va fi aceea a Societii, reproducnd n not
caracteristic discursul politic al epocii. Aa se face c proiectele aprute n revist oglindesc dezbaterile teoretice
din domeniu n favoarea cauzei naionalismului susinut de aceasta, astfel nct evoluia real a fenomenului
arhitectural romnesc, mai cu seam n perioada interbelic, nu poate fi cunoscut n urma parcurgerii coninutului
su.
Cu toate acestea, proiectele i fotografiile construciilor din epoc publicate n revist se constituie ca un fond
documentar foarte important, chiar dac nu exhaustiv, pentru etapa respectiv a arhitecturii romneti, furniznd
date privind lista de lucrri i idiolectul diferiilor arhiteci, evoluia structurii unor programe importante (ca de
pild, cel de locuire) i, n general, modul de abordare a arhitecturii din perspectiva majoritii corpului su
profesional.
O alt seciune a revistei, mai puin important cantitativ, se refer la modaliti de conservare a patrimoniului
arhitectural romnesc i la problemele restaurrii monumentelor. Faptul prezentrii aparent subsidiare a
acestei teme se explic prin preluarea subiectului de ctre o alt publicaie important a vremii BULETINUL
COMISIUNII MONUMENTELOR ISTORICE care, dup apariia sa n 1908, se va dedica n exclusivitate prezentrii
chestiunii patrimoniului arhitectural naional.
Seciunea referitoare la urbanism, sistematizare i probleme edilitare ocup n economia de coninut a revistei o
poziie ce oglindete, n mare, evoluia gndirii n acest domeniu, n paralel cu interesul acordat de administraia
de stat chestiunilor ce i se circumscriau. O prim i foarte schematic luare n discuie a chestiunii urbanismului i
sistematizrii avusese loc n cuprinsul ANALELOR ARCHITECTUREI, avnd ca mobil organizarea administrativ a
noului stat alctuit prin unirea Principatelor Romne. Un alt moment de natur s aduc n atenie aceste subiecte
se configureaz dup primul rzboi mondial, odat cu rentregirea Romniei, cnd zelul integrator al diferiilor
pioni din ierarhia administrativ se manifest i prin organizarea unor concursuri de urbanism i sistematizare.

the accomplishments were not remarkable from the quantitative perspective and not too reliable as solutions, this
event signified a major step forward in the professions history by giving details about how its representatives and
beneficiaries acquired an integrating view of the architectural domain and its role in peoples lives.
Architectural education is present in the magazine moreover as anniversary items containing historical shades, or
reports which are usually congratulatory and self-sufficient. The few critical items among which there are some
composed by Spiridon Cegneanu, a tough man in the Societys team, refer to a number of essential problems in
the organization of the Architecture School while the basic ideas are often avoided.
Some interesting and worthwhile part of the magazines content refers to elements of building technology,
construction details and modules, new working materials and techniques. This section and the pages containing
advertisements on the same topic may emphasize the way and pace of novelties in the building technology as well
as focus on professionals penetration into this phenomenon.
As a worthy successor of the ANNALS OF ARCHITECTURE, the magazine consequently succeeds in approaching
most of the modern, urging topics of this profession and field but, despite its objectivity claimed in some
programmatic contributions, it shows them all from the perspective of the architects views and interests grouped
under the R.S.A. name, often avoiding certain aspects inconvenient to its ideology.
Ideological Affiliation
Marked by its official status as spokesperson of the most powerful (actually, for quite a long time, the only)
organization of architects, the magazine pursued all throughout its publishing to show a balanced attitude to the
excessive opinions or avant-garde views expressed within this profession.
This publication was issued during a boosting time of the Neo-Romanian trend in architecture and it was the ardent
supporter of such a visual expression manner. It justified its choice by the need to enhance the Romanian cultures
national feature recently born among European cultures, so by joining the ideals dating back in 1848 that used to
revive the Romanian elite, ever since mid 20th century.
It enjoyed an editorial board which was often identical to the Leading Board of the Society of Architects and thus
it faithfully embodied the views of the personalities included in the board. Thats the reason why sometimes its
position was absolutely conservative, as compared to the evolution of the architectural phenomenon. This situation
was due to the fact that the same famous architects were continuously members of the Leading Board for several
years. In fact, the Societys management underwent two major reconfiguration stages: the stage of patriarchs
- Ion Mincu, Ion Socolescu, George Mandrea, tefan Ciocrlan, tefan Burcu, George Sterian, Ion D. Berindei,
Grigore Cerchez, Dumitru Hrjeu, Statie Ciortan and others and the stage of disciples - Ion Trajanescu, Ion Enescu,
Ioan Rou, Spiridon Cegneanu, Florea Stnculescu, Simion Vasilescu, Scarlat Petculescu, Constantin Iotzu, Ion I.
Berindei, Constantin Hrjeu and many others. The two generations succeeded and overlapped into the Leading
Board of the Society, gradually learning how to pass on the torch of nationalistic ideals which were highly, fervently
praised by this organization until its closing.
pas nainte n istoria profesiei: arhitecii i beneficiarii lor deopotriv capt o viziune integratoare asupra
spaiului arhitectural i a rolului su n viaa obtii.
nvmntul de arhitectur este prezent n paginile revistei ARHITECTURA mai cu seam sub forma unor
articole aniversare cu tent istoric sau de dare de seam, n general laudative i autosuficiente. Cele cteva
articole critice, printre care se numr unele semnate de Spiridon Cegneanu, un dur n echipa Societii, se
refer la o serie de probleme de amnunt n organizarea colii de arhitectur, n vreme ce chestiunile de principiu
sunt, n general, eludate.
O parte interesant i meritorie a cuprinsului revistei se refer la elemente de tehnologia construciilor, detalii
i subansambluri, materiale i tehnici noi de lucru n construcii. Aceast parte, mpreun cu paginile dedicate
publicitii, cu referire la acelai subiect, sunt de natur s pun n eviden modul i ritmul de ptrundere a noului
n tehnologia construciilor, precum i permeabilitatea profesionitilor la acest fenomen.
Ca o demn continuatoare a ANALELOR ARCHITECTUREI, revista ARHITECTURA izbutete, deci, s abordeze
majoritatea subiectelor actuale i presante ale profesiei i ale domeniului, pe care le prezint ns, n pofida
obiectivitii pe care i-o arog n unele din articolele programatice, sub raportul viziunii sau intereselor cercului
de arhiteci grupat n S.A.R., eludnd adesea anumite aspecte neconvenabile ideologiei acesteia.
Afiliere ideologic
Marcat de poziia sa oficial de purttor de cuvnt al celei mai puternice organizaii a corpului arhitecilor (de
fapt, mult vreme, singura), revista va cuta, totui, pe parcursul apariiei sale, s afieze o atitudine echilibrat
fa de curentele de opinie excesive ori expresiile avangardiste manifestate n cmpul profesiei.
Aprut n plin perioad de afirmare a curentului neoromnesc n arhitectur, publicaia va fi susintoarea
fervent a acestei modaliti de expresie plastic. Ea i va motiva opiunea prin necesitatea ntririi caracterului
naional al culturii romne, nou aprute pe firmamentul culturii europene, deci prin aderarea la idealurile de
origine paoptist care animau elitele romneti nc de la mijlocul secolului trecut.
Beneficiind de un colegiu de redacie adesea identic cu comitetul de conducere al Societii Arhitecilor, revista va
marca n chip fidel opiniile personalitilor care o alctuiau, ceea ce va conduce adesea la situarea sa pe poziii
absolut conservatoare fa de evoluia fenomenului arhitectural. Aceast situaie se datoreaz perpeturii pe
poziiile de conducere din comitet a acelorai figuri de arhiteci vreme de muli ani. De fapt, conducerea Societii
cunoate dou etape majore de configurare: etapa patriarhilor - Ion Mincu, Ion Socolescu, George Mandrea,
tefan Ciocrlan, tefan Burcu, George Sterian, Ion D. Berindei, Grigore Cerchez, Dumitru Hrjeu, Statie Ciortan
.a. i etapa discipolilor - Ion Trajanescu, Ion Enescu, Ioan Rou, Spiridon Cegneanu, Florea Stnculescu, Simion
Vasilescu, Scarlat Petculescu, Constantin Iotzu, Ion I. Berindei, Constantin Hrjeu .a. Cele dou generaii se vor
succeda la conducerea Societii, suprapunndu-se i prelund din mers tafeta idealurilor naionaliste al cror
stindard va fi fluturat cu fervoare de aceast organizaie pn la desfiinarea sa.
Din acest motiv, n anumite perioade, revista opereaz o abordare selectiv a temelor de interes i a proiectelor
93
It is for this reason that at certain times the magazine had a selective approach of interesting themes and projects
submitted. Thus, during its first publishing years, it almost completely avoided eclectic projects except for those
drawn up by the Societys outstanding members such as tefan Burcu, Ion Berindei, Dumitru Hrjeu etc.; during
its second decade, it eluded modern projects. Then, such projects were published as theoretical contributions that
advocate for traditional architecture and during its last six, seven years of functioning it presented them partially
in the context of their political role, as symbols of national rebirth.
The Importance to the Profession History
In spite of all the dangers in its existence and of all the ideological conflicts, the ARHITECTURA Magazine
managed during the pre-communist period to be the longest lasting specialized periodical and, due to its concerns
with the field matters, the richest periodical in terms of themes approached.
Although connected only to a small part of architectural reality, the data provided by the magazine are often
absolutely unique and inestimably valuable. Enriched by the information taken fromother architecture periodicals
of the time and by archive applied research, these data might render a full, vivid picture of the Romanian
architecture world in the early 20th century without which ones view of the present and, more importantly, of
being an architect in the future will probably never be clear enough.

realizate de membrii marcani ai Societii: tefan Burcu, Ion Berindei, Dumitru Hrjeu etc.), iar n deceniul
al doilea va ocoli proiectele moderne. Le va publica apoi pe fondul unor articole teoretice susinnd arhitectura

Dei branate doar la o anumit parte a realitii arhitecturale, datele furnizate de revist sunt adesea absolute
unice i prin aceasta de o inestimabil valoare. Coroborate cu informaii preluate din alte periodice de arhitectur
din epoc i cu o aplicat cercetare de arhiv, acestea permit compunerea unui tablou complet i viu al lumii
arhitecturii romneti din prima jumtate a secolului al XX-lea, fr de care imaginea noastr asupra prezentului
i mai cu seam asupra viitorului profesiunii de arhitect nu va putea fi probabil niciodat ndeajuns de limpede.

Ion Mincu at the Anniversary (1852 -1912)
160 years since birth - 100 years since being disappeared - 60 years since the name of Ion Mincu was given to the
Bucharest Institute of Architecture
Graduate of the School of Bridges and Roads in Bucharest in 1875, Ion Mincu continued to study in Paris, at
the famous cole des Beaux Arts, where most of the Romanian architects active at the time were prepared up
toward the First World War. He was the brightest Romanian student according by his unmatched number of awards
received for his school projects.
His professional career between 1885 the year when he returned to the country after a long study trip to Italy,
Spain, Greece and Istanbul and 1912, the year of his death, was not materialised by a very large number of
works. However, the importance of his entire work for the Romanian architecture is quite special.
Mincus early career coincides with a sensitive change in the architectural directions existing in Romania, particularly
in Bucharest from the late classicism to the eclecticism of the era, especially the French style, in the context of
increased westernisation of the country, after the proclamation of the kingdom, as an obvious sign of modernity.
The penetration of eclecticism is partly due to the active presence of a significant number of Romanian architects,
most of them trained in the same cole de Beaux Arts in Paris where Mincu studied Alexandru Svulescu, Ion
Socolescu, Leonida Negrescu, Dumitru Maimarolu etc., as well as to the presence of some French architects, such as
Paul Gottereau, Albert Galleron and Cassien Bernard or of the Swiss architect Louis Blanc.
The other important direction at the end of the 19th Century, simultaneously present with the massive penetration
of the eclecticism, was that of affirming the national identity by means of the specific architectural language, whose
first and most important exponent was Ion Mincu. This direction is part of the strong European cultural trend at the
end of the 19th Century, eager to search for an expressivity that is specific to each nation.
The remarkably complex personality of Ion Mincu recommends him as a most valuable representative of both
directions. The rigor and logic of thinking were associated with the artistic sense and interest to understand the
national architectural tradition; the perfect knowledge of the French eclecticism was doubled by searching for
a character of the traditional architecture which he interpreted with sensitivity; finally, he was a charismatic
professor of the School of Architecture in Bucharest, worshipped by his students, appreciated and recognized by
the professionals, who honored him several years with the management of the Society of Romanian Architects.
Ion Mincus achievements during the early years of his activity represent perfectly the double architectural
experiment. During the first years of his career, the few buildings of eclectic style the elegant and magnificent
restorations of the luxurious residences of Monteoru and Vernescu (1887-1889), the interiors of the Palace of
Justice or the project for the headquarters of the Chamber of Deputies proved Ion Mincus ability, in the spirit
of his Parisian training, to develop articulated, refined, breezy compositions, denoting a perfect knowledge of the
science of proportions.
After 1890, the eclectic architecture disappeared from his creative concerns which were reoriented towards the
architecture of traditional inspiration, by means of which he opened the path of affirming the national identity
in architecture. He starts building the modern image of the Romanian architecture, transposing old architectural
forms into a considerable typological variety of new architectural forms. His first works the Lahovary House
Ion Mincu la aniversare (1852 -1912)
160 de ani de la natere - 100 de ani de la dispariie - 60 de ani de la acordarea numelui su Institutului de
Arhitectur Bucureti
Absolvent n 1875 al colii de Poduri i osele din Bucureti, Ion Mincu i-a continuat studiile la Paris, la celebra
cole des Beaux Arts, acolo unde s-au format, pn spre Primul Rzboi Mondial, mare parte din arhitecii romni
activi ai perioadei. A fost cel mai strlucit student romn, prin numrul neegalat de recompense primite pentru
proiectele sale de coal.
Cariera profesional, desfurat ntre 1885 anul ntoarcerii sale n ar, dup o lung cltorie de studii prin
Italia, Spania, Grecia, i la Istanbul i 1912, anul decesului su, nu s-a concretizat printr-un numr foarte mare
de lucrri. Importana lor pentru arhitectura romneasc este, ns, cu totul deosebit.
nceputul carierei lui Mincu coincide cu o modificare sensibil a orientrilor arhitecturale existente n Romnia i,
n mod special, n Bucureti, de la clasicismul trziu spre eclectismul epocii, n special cel de factur francez, n
contextul occidentalizrii accentuate a rii, dup proclamarea regatului, ca semn evident al modernitii.
Ptrunderea eclectismului este datorat, pe de o parte, prezenei active a unui numr apreciabil de arhiteci
romni, cei mai muli formai, ca i Mincu, la cole des Beaux Arts din Paris Alexandru Svulescu, Ion Socolescu,
Leonida Negrescu, Dumitru Maimarolu etc. i, pe de alt parte, prezenei unor arhiteci francezi ca Paul Gottereau,
Albert Galleron i Cassien Bernard sau a elveianului Louis Blanc.
Cealalt orientare important a sfritului secolului al XIX-lea, prezent practic simultan cu ptrunderea masiv
a eclectismului, a fost afirmarea identitii naionale prin formele specifice arhitecturii, orientare al crei prim
reprezentant i cel mai nsemnat n Romnia a fost Ion Mincu. Aceast direcie se nscrie n puternicul curent
cultural european de la sfritul secolului al XIX-lea, de cutare a unei expresiviti proprii fiecrei naiuni.
Ambele direcii i-au gsit n personalitatea de o complexitate remarcabil a lui Ion Mincu un exponent de
mare valoare. Rigoarea i logica gndirii s-au asociat simului artistic i interesului pentru nelegerea tradiiei
arhitecturale naionale; cunoaterea desvrit a eclectismului francez a fost dublat de cutarea unui caracter
al arhitecturii tradiionale pe care l-a interpretat cu sensibilitate; n fine, a fost un profesor carismatic al colii de
Arhitectur din Bucureti, adulat de studenii si, apreciat i recunoscut de breasl, care l-a onorat civa ani la
rnd cu conducerea Societii Arhitecilor Romni.
Realizrile primilor ani de activitate ai lui Mincu pun n eviden dublul experiment arhitectural. n primii ani ai
carierei, cele cteva cldiri de factur eclectic elegantele i fastuoasele refaceri ale luxoaselor reedine Monteoru
i Vernescu (1887-1889), interioarele Palatului de Justiie sau proiectul pentru sediul Camerei Deputailor atest
capacitatea lui Ion Mincu de a elabora, n spiritul formaiei sale pariziene, compoziii articulate, rafinate, pline de
verv, denotnd o tiin desvrit a proporiilor.
Dup 1890, arhitectura eclectic a disprut din preocuprile sale creatoare, lundu-i locul arhitectura de inspiraie
tradiional, prin care a deschis calea spre afirmarea identitii naionale n arhitectur. El ncepe edificarea
imaginii moderne a arhitecturii romneti, prelund forme ale vechii arhitecturi pentru a le utiliza ntr-o varietate
tipologic apreciabil. Primele sale lucrri n stilul de inspiraie tradiional casa Lahovary (1886), coala
Central de Fete (1890) i Bufetul de la osea (1892), construit pe baza proiectului nerealizat al pavilionului
105
(1886), the Central Girls School (1890), as well as the Buffet on the Road (1892), built based on the unachieved
project of the Romanian Pavilion for the Universal Exhibition in Paris in 1889 are justly deemed to be the
manifesto buildings of the new direction of Romanian architecture. They are all relatively small buildings, which
enabled the use and interpretation of the assumed elements and patterns at the scale of traditional examples
which represented his sources of inspiration.
The last period of his work is placed under the sign of monumental temptation. The only achievement which
doesnt fit to the monumental type of creation is the house of his friend and biographer, Nicolae Petracu. The large
scale projects the Communal Palace and the Ministry of War in Bucharest, the Administrative Palace of Covurlui
County in Galai and the Bank of Commerce in Craiova represent almost simultaneous attempts to transpose the
architecture of traditional inspiration to large-scale buildings imposing large compositions of academic type.
The tombs in Bucharest and Focani represent achievements of a completely outstanding value, with strong
symbolic emphasis, where the aspiration towards expressing supreme human values is done by suggesting a
reticent, solemn monumentality.
His last work, the restoration of Stavropoleos Church and completion of the enclosure are some kind of testament.
This work represents, probably, the moment of thorough knowledge, in architectural terms, of a historical
monument. The architectural culture which Ion Mincu acquired in a profession of a lifetime is expressed in a project
of great complexity, accuracy and refinement. The scale of the new buildings which formthe enclosure of the church
expresses, clearly and unequivocally, the relations of architecture with the context of the city.
In his works, Ion Mincu used a relatively small number of elements which belonged, in his view, to the local
tradition or were taken from older architectures belonging to a varied historical heritage, from the popular one
to the religious one and then to the more recent urban heritage with obvious emphasis of the Balkans origin: the
gazebo, three-lobed arch, polychrome decoration, in various plastic expressions, from studs to friezes with vegetal
elements or others which reproduced names of some outstanding historical personalities or places of particular
resonance. Many of thembecame leitmotifs of a large number of projects, but the shapes, sizes, ways of treatment,
composition with other architecture elements are different, adapted to the scale of the building, its function and
role in the urban configuration. They are associated with the construction materials used, particularly wood, the
finishes in white plaster of the large surfaces of the facades, the small presence of windows, the picturesque of some
compositions which they all belong to traditional construction.
For Ion Mincu, the ambiance, the architectural expression as a whole (inclusively by proportions and relations
between elements), the spirit of tradition were essential. The real sources of inspiration had a secondary role,
all being filtered through his personal sensitivity. This view on the traditional values rendered his architecture so
personal and impossible to be imitated by successors.
The ION MINCU Exhibition has been conceived by the Ion Mincu University of Architecture and Urbanism in
2002, when celebrating 150 years since the birth of the architect.

Romniei la expoziia universal din Paris din 1889 sunt considerate, pe bun dreptate, cldiri manifest ale
noii orientri a arhitecturii romneti. Toate sunt cldiri de dimensiuni relativ reduse, care au permis utilizarea
i interpretarea elementelor i motivelor preluate la scara exemplelor tradiionale ce i-au constituit surse de
inspiraie.
Ultima perioad a creaiei sale st sub semnul tentaiei monumentalului. Singura realizare care iese din
aceast categorie de preocupri este locuina prietenului i biografului su, Nicolae Petracu. Proiectele de mari
dimensiuni ca Palatul Comunal i Ministerul de Rzboi, Palatul Administrativ al Judeului Covurlui din Galai i
Banca Comerului din Craiova, reprezint ncercri cvasi simultane de transpunere a arhitecturii de inspiraie
tradiional la construcii de scar mare care impun compoziii ample de factur academic.
Cavourile din Bucureti i cel din Focani reprezint, n ansamblul lor, realizri de o valoare cu totul remarcabil,
cu puternice accente simbolice, n care aspiraia spre exprimarea valorilor umane supreme se face simit prin
sugerarea unui caracter monumental reinut, solemn.
Ultima sa lucrare, restaurarea bisericii Stavropoleos i completarea incintei acesteia, reprezint un fel de testament.
Este, probabil, momentul de cunoatere aprofundat, din punct de vedere arhitectural, al unui monument al
trecutului. Cultura arhitectural pe care o acumulase de-a lungul ntregii sale viei profesionale este transpus
ntr-un proiect de mare complexitate, precizie i rafinament. Scara noilor adugiri exprim clar i fr echivoc
raporturile arhitecturii cu oraul.
n opera sa, Ion Mincu a folosit un numr relativ restrns de elemente care, n viziunea sa, aparineau tradiiei
locale sau care fuseser preluate din arhitecturile mai vechi aparinnd unui patrimoniu istoric variat, de la cel
popular la cel religios pn la cel urban i, mai recent, cu accente evidente de origine balcanic: foiorul, arcul
trilobat, decoraia policrom, sub diferite expresii plastice, de la butoni la frize cu elemente vegetale sau altele care
reproduceau nume ale unor personaliti marcante ale istoriei sau ale unor localiti cu rezonan particular.
Multe din acestea vor deveni leitmotivele unui mare numr de proiecte, dar forma, dimensiunile, modul de tratare,
compunerea cu alte elemente de arhitectur sunt diferite, adaptate scrii cldirii, funciunii sale i rolului acesteia
n configuraia urban. Acestea sunt asociate materialelor de construcie utilizate, n special lemnul, finisajele n
tencuial alb a marilor suprafee ale faadelor, prezena redus a ferestrelor, pitorescul unor compoziii care
aparin, toate, construciei tradiionale.
Pentru Ion Mincu erau eseniale ambiana, expresia arhitectural de ansamblu (inclusiv prin proporii i raporturile
dintre elemente), prezena spiritului tradiiei. Sursele de inspiraie concrete aveau un rol secundar, totul fiind filtrat
prin propria sa sensibilitate. Aceast perspectiv asupra valorilor tradiionale a fcut ca arhitectura sa s fie att
de personal, imposibil de imitat de ctre urmai.

Romanian Architects, Creators of Cultural Heritage
- A Necessary Exhibition -
During the large number of events celebrating the 2012 Bucharest National Architecture Biennale taking place in
an aristocratic setting - one of the main hall exedras inside the Romanian National History Museum there was
also an exhibition entitled Romanian Architects, Creators of Cultural Heritage which aimed at marking 120 years
of existence of architects and architecture education fellowship in Romania.
Subsequent to a huge effort of gathering often unique data (research was undertaken in the UAR Archives, the
National Archives, The National Institute of Historical Monuments, the Romanian Academy Library etc., interviews
were conducted with specialists in history and architecture history, with architects or followers and friends of
architects whose works were exhibited etc.) and of taking pictures of some hundreds of architectural sites all
throughout the country, we realized a valuable mosaic was being built which eventually could end up having
the chance to restore the dignity of Romanian architects current status - unfortunately, a status that has been
too much burdened with mercantilism, relation systems, unfavorable policies, the need to survive in a world of
fiction. Despite the two World Wars and the hard years under the Communist regime, we surprisingly and happily
discovered that architecture education and profession in Romania have a certain continuity that one can see after
all, provided it is regarded carefully and impartially. Such continuity and its connection with the sequence of trends
and styles all of Europe has lived through over the last 120 years have guided us towards a time scale whose stages
do not practically include any year left unmarked by some remarkable architectural accomplishment.
We started our exhibition with the works of Alexandru Orscu, the president of the Romanian Society of Architects
(set up in 1891) and we formally ended it with Romeo Belea (the laureate of the Opera Omnia Section in the 2012
Bucharest National Architecture Biennale). We did not actually end the exhibition as it went on by the high quality
architectural works exhibited during the 10 Romanian Architecture Biennales. By means of the current pictures,
vintage pictures, plans, drawings, sketches and various data, we displayed more than 100 buildings achieved
between 1869 and 1989 by 50 architects, practitioners of different styles, from different epochs, with different
tenets. We were ready to particularly bring forth less famous architects, although at the same time heritage
creators, among whom many play remarkable roles within their fellowship and in architectural education, such
as: Virginia Andreescu-Haret, Spiridon Cegneanu, Radu Dudescu, Dumitru Ionescu-Berechet, Marcel Locar,
George Mandrea, Paul Emil Miclescu, Florea Stnculescu and others.
Working on this exhibition developed my special sensitivity to the buildings that I walk past every day so much
that when I look at a familiar faade, I almost see its architect a portrait, a life, a work and maybe even dreams,
failures, troubles. Choosing from among thousands of modern artworks was very difficult and time was the only
limit as the desire to restore the dignity of Romanian architecture needs to be firmly pursued since the examples of
the past are so generous and they hardly wait to be made public or brought to light.
Ranging fromthe francophone Academicismof architect Berindei to the audacious pursuits later on called the Neo-
Romanian Style - Socolescu, Mincu, Grigore Cerchez, Cristofi Cerchez, so on and so forth, to evolving towards the
Arhiteci romni creatori de patrimoniu cultural
- O expoziie necesar -
n cadrul bogiei de evenimente care au marcat Bienala Naional de Arhitectur Bucureti 2012, prezentat
ntr-un cadru aristocratic - una dintre exedrele holului principal al Muzeului Naional de Istorie a Romniei - s-a
aflat i expoziia Arhiteci Romni Creatori de Patrimoniu, care i-a propus s marcheze cei 120 de ani de existen
a breslei arhitecilor i de nvmnt de arhitectur n Romnia.
n urma unui efort uria de colectare a unor date de multe ori inedite (s-au consultat Arhiva UAR, Arhivele Naionale,
Institutul National al Monumentelor Istorice, Biblioteca Academiei Romne etc., au fost intervievai specialiti n
istorie i istoria arhitecturii, arhiteci n via sau urmai i cunoscui ai arhitecilor expui etc.) i de fotografiere
a ctorva sute de obiective de arhitectur din ntreaga ar, ne-am dat seama c se compunea un mozaic valoros
care, ntr-un final, putea avea ansa de a reda demnitatea statutului actual al arhitectului romn - din pcate, un
statut mult prea ncercat de mercantilisme, sisteme de relaii, politici nefericite, nevoia de subzisten ntr-o lume a
nefirescului. n ciuda a dou rzboaie mondiale i a anilor grei de comunism, amdescoperit cu fericit surprindere
c coala i profesia de arhitectur n Romnia au o continuitate pe care, privind-o cu atenie i neprtinire, o poi
vedea, pn la urm. Aceast continuitate i dialogul ei cu succesiunea de curente i stiluri pe care le-a traversat
ntreaga Europ n ultimii 120 de ani ne-au ghidat de-a lungul unei scale temporale pe treptele creia nu exist,
practic, nici un an care s nu fie marcat de o realizare arhitectural remarcabil.
Amnceput expoziia noastr cu Alexandru Orscu, preedintele Societii Arhitecilor Romni (nfiinat n 1891),
i am ncheiat-o formal cu Romeo Belea (laureatul seciunii Opera Omnia al Bienalei Naionale de Arhitectur
Bucureti 2012). De fapt, nu amncheiat expoziia, ea rmnnd s se continue cu creaia de arhitectur de calitate
expus de-a lungul celor 10 Bienale romneti de arhitectur. Am expus, prin intermediul fotografiilor actuale,
fotografiilor de epoc, planurilor, desenelor i diverselor date, peste 100 de construcii realizate n intervalul 1869-
1989 de 50 de arhiteci, practicani a diferite stiluri, din diferite epoci, cu diferite crezuri. Am avut grij s aducem
n faa publicului larg i arhiteci mai puin cunoscui ndeobte, dei creatori de patrimoniu n egal msur,
dintre care muli i cu un rol remarcabil n breasl i n nvmntul de arhitectur, cumar fi: Virginia Andreescu-
Haret, Spiridon Cegneanu, Radu Dudescu, Dumitru Ionescu-Berechet, Marcel Locar, George Mandrea, Paul Emil
Miclescu, Florea Stnculescu i alii.
Lucrul la aceast expoziie mi-a dezvoltat o sensibilitate special pentru cldirile pe lng care trec zi de zi, pn
ntr-acolo nct, privind o faad cunoscut, l vd n spate pe arhitectul ei - portret, via, oper i poate chiar
vise, nempliniri, necazuri. Alegerea dintre miile de creaii moderne de calitate a fost foarte grea i timpul a fost
singura limit, dorina de restituire a demnitii arhitecturii romneti cerndu-se continuat cu asiduitate, fiindc
exemplele trecutului sunt generoase i ateapt cu nerbdare s fie popularizate ori scoase la lumin.
De la academismul de vibraie francofon al arhitectului Berindei la ndrzneele cutri numite mai trziu stil
neoromnesc - Socolescu, Mincu, Grigore Cerchez, Cristofi Cerchez i atia alii, la evoluia ctre simplitate formal

formal simplicity brought in by Petre Antonescu, Octav Doicescu, Constantin Iotzu, G. M. Cantacuzino and then to
the avant-gardes frenzy (Marcel Iancu, Horia Creang, Henrieta Delavrancea, Tiberiu Niga), to the high-quality
architecture practised during the Communist period in spite of the systems dilettantish oppression (Tiberiu Ricci,
Horia Maicu, Alexandru Iotzu, Nicolae Cucu etc.) - I have only mentioned a few of the architects whose works were
displayed at the exhibition - our itinerary gradually turned into a masterly lecture on high-quality design. On this
occasion, I discovered that the examples are much closer than one might think. Moreover, I found out something
about the secret methods helping excellence architecture resist despite social and political pressures, perpetuating
itself discreetly, yet steadily.
An exhibition of such significance can only be in progress, it should be continued in an ongoing pursuit for data,
information organization and updating. Besides, as far as I am concerned, I regarded it as a personal (obviously
modest) homage paid to the valuables personalities of the Romanian architecture and to the endeavors to
perpetuate them. Actually, its early form was set on the celebration of 120 years of architecture education at Ion
Mincu University of Architecture and Urbanism of Bucharest (the ROCAD Congress, May 2012). A lot of people got
involved in order for this initiative to be fulfilled. It is important, yet risky that I should enumerate the members of
the organization team because I am sure I cannot mention each and every single person that helped us. This way
I thank them whether they are on the list below or not:

de excelen rezist n ciuda presiunilor sociale i politice, perpetundu-se discret, dar sigur.
O expoziie de aceast factur nu poate fi dect in progress, cu va urma, ntr-o continu cutare de date, organizare
i actualizare a informaiei. De altfel, n ceea ce m privete, am gndit-o ca pe un omagiu personal (modest,
firete), adus valorilor arhitecturii romneti i eforturilor de perpetuare a lor. O form incipient a sa a fost
montat, de altfel, cu prilejul srbtoririi de ctre Universitatea de Arhitectur i UrbanismIon Mincu din Bucureti
a 120 de ani de nvmnt de arhitectur (congresul ROCAD, mai 2012). Muli oameni s-au implicat pentru ca
aceast iniiativ s se finalizeze. Enumerarea membrilor colectivului de elaborare este un gest necesar, ns

RETRO BAB
The attempt to comment upon a review of previous biennales can be hazardous.
It can be seen that the first biennales namely those of 1994, 1996, 1998 and 2000 were organized in 5 section
(Architecture, Urban Planning, Interior Architecture and Design, Restoration of Monuments, Architecture
Publications); a sixth section emerged in the 2004 biennale by separating Interior Architecture from Design.
Ever since 2006, the number of sections has risen by dividing the Architecture section into two parts (Less than
1000 m2 Architecture and More than1000 m2 Architecture) and by separating the Restoration of Monuments
section from Rehabilitation of Buildings.
In the 2008 and 2010 biennales, the 6-section structure was used again, as follows:
Architecture (less than 1000 m2)
Architecture(more than1000 m2)
Urban Planning and Arrangements of Urban Areas
Interior Architecture, Product Design and Set Design
Restoration of Architectural Monuments and Rehabilitation of Buildings
Architecture Publications
The Urban Planning, Arrangement of Urban Areas and Architecture Publications and Studies were always
present.
During the 2000 Biennale, the UAR President Prize was awarded for the first time and in 2002 the special prizes
awarded by partners were made public.
The juries were global or specialized in sections, with national and foreign members. The nominees and the prizes
awarded for specialty production were increasing continuously.
I have not made up a ranking of the architects receiving most medals as the role of biennales is not reaching a
scoring but encouraging those talented to come up and compete. In thinks a review in itself deserves a story, a book
about architecture in full progress.

RETRO BAB
ncercarea de a comenta o retrospectiv a precedentelor bienale poate constitui o iniiativ hazardat.
Se poate constata c primele bienale, respectiv cele din 1994, 1996, 1998 i 2000, au fost organizate pe 5 seciuni
(Arhitectur, Urbanism, Arhitectur de interior i design, Restaurare de monumente, Publicaii de
arhitectur); la bienala din 2004 a aprut o a 6-a seciune prin separarea Arhitecturii de Interior de Design.
ncepnd cu 2006, numrul seciunilor a crescut prin separarea seciunii de Arhitectur n dou (Arhitectur
< 1000 mp i Arhitectur > 1000 mp) i prin separarea seciunii de Restaurare de monumente de cea de
Reabilitarea cldirilor.
La bienalele din 2008 i 2010 s-a revenit la structura pe 6 seciuni, astfel:
Arhitectur <1000 mp
Arhitectur >1000 mp
Urbanism i Amenajarea spaiilor urbane
Arhitectur de interior, scenografie, design de obiect
Restaurare de monumente de arhitectur i reabilitarea cldirilor
Publicaii de arhitectur
Seciunile de Urbanism i Amenajarea Spaiului Urban i cea de Publicaii i studii de arhitectur au fost o
prezen constant.
La bienala din 2000 s-a acordat pentru prima dat Premiul Preedintelui UAR, iar din 2002 au aprut premiile
speciale ale partenerilor.
Juriile au fost globale sau specializate pe seciuni, cu reprezentare naional i internaional. Nominalizrile i
premiile acordate pentru producia de specialitate au fost n permanent cretere.
Nu amfcut clasamente cu cei mai medaliai arhiteci, pentru c rolul bienalelor nu este cel de a obine un scor ci de
a ncuraja ieirea n ring i competiia. Cred c retrospectiva n sine merit o poveste, o carte despre arhitecturile
n cretere.

This exhibition celebrates a moment of maturity of the architectural higher education. Beside the degrees of
the three faculties within Ion Mincu University of Architecture and Urban Planning, namely the Faculties of
Architecture, Urban Planning and Interior Architecture, the exhibits also included architects licensed within
the Faculties of Architecture in the Technical Universities of Cluj, Iai, Timioara whose teaching expertise have
a major role to play during 40 years of specialty education. There were also architects licensed at the Faculty
of Architecture at Spiru Haret University as they are now in an ascending trend. The Landscape Planning
department graduates from the Universities of Agricultural Sciences of Bucharest and Iai were invited to exhibit
their works as future landscape creators and collaborating partners of architects and town planners to be.
One should notice the diversity of themes and places extending into the European area, the concept as well as
the relationship with the modern issues regarding the preservation of built and natural heritage, the use of eco-
technologies in terms of the sustainability of built areas have all proven the quality of the future professional
generations.

ROMEO BELEA: OPERA OMNIA - LAUDATIO
Academician Professor PhD arch. Romeo Belea has a special rank in the elite of architects class thanks to his works,
his role as a mentor and his public presence. He was born in Tulcea, he attended the classes of various schools in
Craiova and then became acquainted with the courses and workshops of the Ion Mincu Institute of Architecture
which he eventually graduated in 1958.
He had the opportunity to substantiate his career in two of the most important design institutes (IPROBUC and
Carpai) before working together with Professor Horia Maicu in the activity of designing large show halls such
as the so-called Republic Palace Hall (1960) and the new National Theatre (1973) as part of the Capital Citys
landmark series.
He has been a member of the Architects Union, a professor at Ion Mincu Architecture Institute, he has got involved
in the professional field especially by the number of architecture and town planning competitions the he has won
in teams made up with Dinu Gheorghiu and Gabriel Cristea (Iai, Craiova, Piteti etc.). The competition related
to Ploieti Civic Centre (1959) is worth mentioning as it is one of the very few subsequently actually implemented.
After the events in 1989, he has tested pragmatic approaches that were quite innovative to Bucharests architecture
of the time, such as headquarters for private universities (The Romanian-American University), office blocks
in private residence districts (Charles de Gaulle-Dorobani Square) or hotels in historic places (Novotel, whose
construction was preceded by the rebuilding of the old National Theatres portals on Calea Victoriei in 2002).
In his belief regarding the renewing mission of an architect, Academician Romeo Belea has started his connections
with the works of his predecessors: he has had some interference at the Romanian Academys Palace in Cciulai-
Ilfov, he has worked on the Continental Hotel chain project (Bucharest, Cluj, Constana, 1997), he has contributed
to the Capa House refurbishment and has daringly suggested the extension of the access hallway to Duiliu Marcus
interwar work after he was in charge of a project on the new building of the Romanian Academy Library (1993).
An expert in reshaping the great show halls, he is currently engaged in rebuilding and extending the National
Theatre area in Bucharest as if checking the time durability of works performed long ago, in his very beginnings.
A highly appreciated (also controversial) author of many other projects and works mainly located in the Capital
City, a forerunner of modern architecture defined by plastic materiality, a realistic (even cynical) observer of the
real estate environment, a careful, innovative mentor to numerous student generations, an objective participant
in the architects debates, an active advocate of fellow architects (in this respect, he has encouraged support for the
Romanian Academys awarding the annual architecture prize again).
That being said, the Architect Professor Romeo Belea, Ph.D. deserves to be awarded for his entire work at the tenth
edition of Bucharest National Architecture Biennale.

ROMEO BELEA: OPERA OMNIA - LAUDATIO
n elita breslei arhitecilor, acad. prof. dr. Arh. Romeo Belea ocup un loc distinct datorat lucrrilor, rolului de
mentor, prezenei publice. Nscut la Tulcea, s-a format n colile din Craiova, dup care a frecventat cursurile i
atelierele Institutului de Arhitectur Ion Mincu, pe care l-a absolvit n 1958.
A avut ansa de a-i fundamenta cariera n dou din cele mai importante institute de proiectare (IPROBUC i
Carpai), nainte de a colabora cu profesorul Horia Maicu la proiectarea unor mari sli de spectacole, respectiv
Sala Palatului Republicii (1960) i noul Teatru Naional (1973), parte dintr-un ansamblu emblematic al Capitalei.
Membru al Uniunii Arhitecilor, cadru didactic la Institutul de Arhitectur Ion Mincu, s-a implicat n viaa
profesional inclusiv prin seria de concursuri de arhitectur i urbanism ctigate n echipa format cu Dinu
Gheorghiu i Gabriel Cristea (Iai, Craiova, Piteti etc.) Merit menionat concursul pentru Centrul civic din Ploieti
(1959), unul dintre puinele transpus ulterior n realitate.
Dup evenimentele din 1989 a ncercat abordri programatice pn atunci inedite pentru arhitectura bucuretean,
precum sedii pentru universiti private (Universitatea romno-american), turnuri de birouri n cartiere de vile
(Piaa Charles de Gaulle-Dorobani) sau complexe hoteliere pe amplasamente istorice (Novotel, precedat de
arcadele reconstituite ale vechiului Teatru Naional de pe Calea Victoriei, 2002).
Convins de menirea nnoitoare a arhitectului, acad. Romeo Belea a intrat n dialog cu opera naintailor:
a intervenit pe Palatul de la Cciulai-Ilfov al Academiei Romne, a lucrat pentru lanul hotelier Continental
(Bucureti, Cluj, Constana, 1997), a operat pe complexul Capa i a ndrznit s propun extinderea holului de
acces la lucrarea interbelic a lui Duiliu Marcu dup ce a rspuns de proiectul pentru corpul nou al Bibliotecii
Academiei Romne (1993).
Specialist n remodelarea marilor sli de spectacole, este implicat actualmente n reconstituirea i extinderea
ansamblului Teatrului Naional din Bucureti, o verificare peste timp a lucrrilor de nceput.
Autor apreciat (i comentat) a numeroase alte proiecte i lucrri plasate cu precdere n Capital, promotor al
unei arhitecturi contemporane definite prin materialitatea plastic, observator realist (pn la cinism) a scenei
imobiliare, mentor atent i inovator a numeroase serii de studeni, participant obiectiv la dezbaterile breslei,
susintor activ al arhitecilor (a susinut reintroducerea premiului anual pentru arhitectur al Academiei Romne),
prof. dr. arh. Romeo Belea merit din plin acordarea premiului pentru ntreaga oper la cea de a X-a ediie a
Bienalei Naionale de Arhitectur Bucureti.

1. GENERAL INFORMATION
The 2012 BUCHAREST NATIONAL ARCHITECTURE
BIENNALE (BNAB), previously called the Bucharest
Architecture Biennale, is the most important
professional event of architects fellowship that has
been ceaselessly organized since 1994.
The Biennale had a concept typical to each edition,
proposed by the curators team as a complex cultural
program.
The territorial representation extending every year
and the anniversary nature of this edition, the tenth,
made the Senate of the Romanian Union of Architects
entitle it the Bucharest National Architecture
Biennale. On the 26 February 2011, during the
period between the previous 2010 BAB Biennale until

120 years since the foundation of the Romanian
Society of Architects and on the 15 October 2012 it will
celebrate 120 years sins the begging of architecture
higher education buy the National School of
Architecture. In addition, celebrating 160 years since
Ion Mincus birth and 100 years since his death, his
name being the name of the Bucharest University of
Architecture and Urbanism, in the Mincu Year, marks
the year 2012 further more.
The Biennale will focus on the heritage values of
architectural spaces and on the chances to improve life
quality by architecture. Being aware that the progress
of built spaces is directly influenced by the interaction
among authorities, architects and beneficiaries, the
organizers would like to create an interactive platform
for the communication among such players.

Palatul BNR a fost edificat n perioada 1884-1890 pe baza proiectului arhitecilor francezi Cassien-
Bernard i Albert Galleron. Suprafaa construit este 3800 mp i suprafaa desfurat de circa 20000
mp. Faada principal, lung de circa 73 m, se desfoar pe strada Lipscani i cele laterale, de 52 m,
pe strzile Smrdan i Carada. Construcia a introdus n Bucureti stilurile arhitecturii vest-europene.
Compoziional, un puternic ax central grupeaz principalele spaii reprezentative. De-a lungul celor
120 de ani de existen, construcia a suferit modificri i a acumulat efecte ale aciunilor naturale.
Intervenia din perioada 2005-2011 a cuprins ample lucrri de consolidare i restaurare a elementelor
structurale. Consolidarea s-a realizat la interior, prin turnare de diafragme i refacere integral a
planeelor. Lucrrile au cuprins, pe parcursul a apte ani, restaurarea elementelor degradate i a
tuturor componentelor artistice: pavimente, decoraii parietale, plafoane, luminatoare, lambriuri,
ancadramente, eminee i lucrri de art. Proiectul a armonizat cerinele de funcionalitate ale Bncii
Centrale cu constrngerile impuse de construcie ca monument de arhitectur. Conservarea i punerea
n valoare au fost cuvintele de ordine.
Retrofitting, restoration and refurbishment Old Palace of the National
Bank of Romania
Designed by French architects Cassien Bernard and Albert Galleron, the Old Palace of the National
Bank of Romania was built between 1884-1890. The built area is of 3.800 sqm and the gross area is
of 20.000 sqm. The building introduced the western-European architectural styles to Bucharest. The
perfectly symmetrical composition has a powerful main axis grouping the main public representative
areas. During its 120 years of existence, the building suffered countless alterations and was subject of
major natural disasters. The structure was deeply affected and the building was subject of numerous
changes of use. The new project had to accommodate the contemporary Central Bank functional
requirements within a historic landmark building. Our intervention, between 2005 - 2011, consisted
of important consolidation work starting from foundations up to the roof and included all structural
elements such as walls, pillars and ceilings. The reinforcement of the structure was operated from
inside and all structure elements were reinforced and restored. All valuable interior decorations were
restored by experts and artists including pavements, decorations, ceiling, wood works, chimneys, and
paintings. Preserve and bring splendor back was our commandment.

Elementele conceptuale definitorii ale acestui proiect sunt transparena i conexiunile vizuale ntre
mediul contextual i interiorul construciei. Proiectul propune crearea unui reper contemporan simbolic
al oraului optnd pentru un macro-relief aflat n dialog cu meandra Someului i organicitatea
parcului. Volumul e diminuat pe zonele de contact cu circulaiile de la nord i sud, fragmentnd
obiectul dup o strategie de simetrie diagonal. Taluzul care nconjoar perimetral tribunele face
trecerea de la parc la construcie, diminueaz scara i ofer o a doua promenad din care publicul din
afar poate vedea nuntru viaa de zi cu zi a arenei. n replic, din interior privirea scap prin zonele
de articulaii ale celor patru corpuri spre zonele nalte ale oraului i peisaj. Faadele sunt translucide,
permind vederea nestingherit ctre mprejurimi prin branhiile din tabl perforat. Imaginea
de zi mizeaz pe diversitatea condiiilor de nsorire i mai ales pe lumina razant a dimineii i a
apusului n lungul rului, iar noaptea, cnd spectacolul aprinde arena, aceasta devine cea mai mare
lamp din ora i se dematerializeaz prin transparen.
Cluj Arena
The defining conceptual elements of this project are the transparency and the visual dialog between
the environment and the indoor spaces. The project proposes a symbolic contemporary city landmark
through a mixture of flowing shapes and a macro-structure harmonized with the Somes River loop and
the landscape of the nearby park. The volume is highly decreased in the areas adjacent to the North
and South traffic, producing a fragmentation of the object in diagonal symmetry. The perimeter slope
surrounding the tribunes creates a transition between the park and the construction and offers a second
walkway wherefromthe public can glimpse at the everyday life in the arena. Fromthe inside, the joints
of the four frames offer a filtered view to the city and the park. Following the same visual strategy of
transparency, the facades are translucent, allowing an unhindered view to the surroundings through
the gills made of punctured metal sheets. The day view is a play on various natural light conditions
and at night the arena becomes the largest lamp in the city, dematerialized by its transparency.

Opinia juriului prezentat de prof.dr.arh. JAMES HORAN,
preedintele juriului Seciunilor A, B, C, J
Activitatea juriului a nceput cu multe luni n urm, examinnd imaginile tuturor proiectelor depuse pe e-mail. Dup deliberri dificile, lista
acestor proiecte a fost redus la un numr de aproximativ 25 proiecte, amplasate pe teritoriul Romniei. Proiectele apreciate de acest juriu au
fost mprite n patru categorii:
Rezideniale
Cldiri Publice
Proiecte ce folosesc inovaia i tehnologia
Proiecte nerealizate
Juriul s-a ntrunit pentru prima dat ca echip, mari 9 octombrie. Juriul a avut la dispoziie notele pe care fiecare membru le acordase pentru
fiecare proiect pe baza panourilor prezentate i notele acelor membri ai juriului care au vzut materialele depuse, dar nu au putut fi disponibili
pentru a vizita cldirile personal.
A nceput apoi procesul de vizitare a cldirilor individuale, nti a celor din Bucureti i apoi a celor din restul Romniei.
Vorbind despre cltorie, Henry Miller spunea: Destinaia nu este niciodat un loc, ci o nou modalitate de a vedea lucrurile.
A fost un test de rezisten pentru juriu s cltoreasc pn la 14 ore pe zi, pierzndu-se printre orae i case, conducnd pe drumuri dificile i
ajungnd adesea la punctele de destinaie zilnice, trziu n noapte.
Vizitele au presupus trecerea cmpurilor i mlatinilor n timpul lsrii ntunericului i, de multe ori, s-a ntmplat ca un membru al juriului s
mearg pe jos n faa mainii, testnd cu un b lung adncimea blilor de pe drum, pentru ca maina s poat nainta.
Timpul necesar cltoriei de la un loc la altul a fost considerabil mai mare dect s-a anticipat, ceea ce a condus de multe ori la sosiri mult dup
cderea ntunericului.
Totui, acest timp de cltorie mai extins a oferit juriului o ocazie minunat de a se angaja n discuii i de a face lumin asupra complexiti
i detaliilor proiectelor.
Juriul a lucrat ca o adevrat echip, iar acordarea medaliilor a ntrunit unanimitate, cu decizii majoritare doar n ceea ce privete unele dintre
proiectele de pe listele nominale.
Unul dintre cele mai interesante aspecte ale ntregului exerciiu a fost diferena ntre experiena ctigat din vizionarea panourilor prezentate
i vizita propriu-zis a cldirilor. n ciuda dificultii de a cltori de-a lungul i de-a latul rii, valoarea vizitrii in situ a cldirilor este
inestimabil.
Opinion of the Jurys President for Sections A, B, C, J
Presented by Professor PhD Architect James Horan
The jurys activity started several months ago examining the email pictures of all the projects submitted. After considerable deliberations, the
projects were narrowed down to a short list including almost 25 projects representing places all over Romania. The projects appreciated by this
jury were divided into four categories:
Residential
Public buildings
Projects depicting innovation and technology
Unaccomplished projects
The jury met for the first time on Tuesday, the 9th of October. The jury members knew the grades they had given to each project based on its
posters submitted. In addition, they had at their disposal the grades of all the other jury members who had seen everything that had been
submitted but they could not be available to personally visit the buildings.
Then they started a series of visits of the buildings taken individually first those in Bucharest and then the others in Romania.
Henry Miller, when speaking about travelling, stated that a Destination is never a place, but a new way of seeing things.
That was a stress test to the jury, as they had to travel up to 14 hours a day, mingling through towns and houses, driving on difficult roads and
often reaching their daily destinations so late at night.
Their various visits meant they had to pass through fields and swamps while it was getting dark and not only once did a jury member have to walk
in front of their car holding a long stick to test the depth of puddles on the roads before the car could go any further.
The time they needed to travel from one place to another was considerably longer than it had been estimated often resulting in their arrivals
long after midnight.
Nevertheless, such an extended travelling time offered the jury a wonderful opportunity to talk to one another and to clarify the complexity
and details of projects.
The jury worked as a true team and the results regarding the medals they granted were accepted unanimously and their decisions were made in
their majority only in terms of some projects on the nominal lists.
One of the most interesting aspects of this whole process was the difference between the experience they acquired after having viewed the
posters submitted and the actual visits of the buildings. Despite the travelling difficulties about the country, the value of visiting the buildings is
immeasurable.

Opinia juriului - Seciunea
A prezentat de arhitect
TIBERIU BUCA
Experiena noastr a presupus intruziunea n privat.
La toate seciunile, diferena ntre panou i ceea ce
am gsit n realitate a fost ocant, ns la aceast
seciune a existat i o component n plus, care
adaug abstractului pe care l reprezint planele un
spaiu locuit, luat n posesie, mobilat i folosit. Ne-am
ntlnit cu situaii diferite i extreme, am vzut case
foarte mari i case extremde mici, amvzut case cu un
buget enorm i case cu un buget aproape de minim,
amntlnit beneficiari care ludau casa n care triesc,
dar am ntlnit i situaii n care criticile veneau direct
de la cei care au luat n posesie spaiul. Avem un mic
regret legat de aceast seciune: faptul c am avut
foarte puine proiecte care aveau alt tem dect
tipologia locuinei individuale. Probabil este o situaie
datorat contextului de criz n care trim.
The jurys opinion -
Section A Presented by
Architect TIBERIU BUCA
Our expertise has meant intrusion into privacy. At
all sections, the difference between what has been
shown on the panel and what has been found in
reality on the sites has been shocking, but this
section had an additional component, which adds a
living, appropriated, furnished and dwelt space to
the abstractness of drawings. We have come across
various, extreme situations, we have visualized very
large and also very small houses, houses built with
huge amounts of money and some built with so little
money, we have encountered beneficiaries praising
the houses they live in and we have also met house
owners themselves criticizing their dwellings. We have
small regrets concerning this section: we have seen too
few projects which were dealing with other typologies
than that of individual homes. This is probably due to
the crisis context we are all living in.

Casa de la Bragadiru este o cas construit din garaje prefabricate de beton. Martor al Epocii de
Aur acest modul prefabricat de 3,0 x 5,6m devenise deja ceva mai mult dect un garaj. Convertit n
cmar, atelier, birou, fostul garajul era o adevrat prelungire a locuinei de la bloc. Prin recuperate,
alturare, relaionare, cele cinci garaje merg mai departe, sunt altceva dect ceea ce au fost menite
s fie la nceput. Proiectul pornete de afar, cu multe curi i o hain modest. Fostele garajele pot
fi recunoscute ns mai ales la interior. Fiecare dintre cele cinci module ajunge s conin, s strng
laolalt lucruri felurite, s adposteasc altfel. Locuit, casa joas se adun n sine pentru a se ntoarce
ctre afar, n limita strns a zidului de mprejmuire.
House near Bucharest
The house in Bragadiru is a house built from prefabricated concrete garages. Witness of the Golden
Age this 3.0 x 5.6m prefabricated module was something more than a garage. Converted to cellar,
workshop, office, the former garage was a real extension of the apartment. Through recovery,
juxtaposition, connection, the five garages go further, they become something else than they were
meant to be. The project begins from outside with several courtyards and a modest coat. Yet its on
the inside that the former garages can be recognized mostly. Each of the five modules ends up by
containing, gathering all kinds stuff, sheltering in a different way. Inhabited, the low house huddles
inside, but also turns to the exterior within the tight enclosure wall.

Cldirea ocup locul fostei ure cu o volumetrie care prin scara elementelor de acoperi se ncadreaz n
imaginea satului tradiional. Ea se compune pe schema de funcionare a unei gospodrii tradiionale.
Livingul i sufrageria stau n miezul cldirii, ca o curte nconjurat de camere de locuit - casele
gospodriei rneti exprimate volumetric prin acoperiurile de tip arpant. Casa are o relaie
nemijlocit cu grdina nconjurtoare prin amplasarea ei la nivelul solului, prin marile suprafee
vitrate i prin terasa acoperit amplasat spre vest i nu n ultimul rnd prin anfilada spaiilor
transparente care o traverseaz n mai multe direcii. Acoperiul este nvelit cu indril, panourile
tencuite pe ipci alterneaz cu cele de scndur.
BS House
The building replacing the old barn has a special shape of roofs, scaled to the mass of traditional
peasant houses and the texture of the village. The spatial composition follows the order of a traditional
courtyard. Living and dining halls are placed in the middle, surrounded by the rooms like some
houses of a peasants farmyard, signified with their own parts of roof. This house is in a close
relation with the garden through its single level, the great windows, the western terrace and, last but
not least, through the transparent space sequences cutting it in several directions. The roof is covered
with shingle and the traditional plastered panels of the facade alternate with deck.

Proiectul vizeaz o cas prsit dintr-un cartier modest i tipic pentru Banat, n care alinierea faadei
principale ctre strad prin dou camere, n care una de oaspei i cealalt de inut zestrea, erau
permanent obturate de rulouri din lemn. Camere mari, rcoroase, cu miros de naftalin, icoane, poze
de familie fcute pe litoral n anii 60, o buctrie improvizat pe hol alturi de o cmar din care
parc se mai simea miros de afumtur, volumetrie simpl, arpant n dou ape, planimetrie rigid
i nefuncional fa de cerinele beneficiarului, degradri ale finisajelor i nu n ultimul rnd dizlocri
n zidria veche din crmid de Jimbolia. Rezolvarea nu putea fi ns dect demolarea casei existente
i propunerea unei arhitecturi contemporane care s epateze. Casa Moza este n primul rnd un
exerciiu de sinceritate al arhitectului fa de locul gsit, propunnd o arhitectura care caut memoria
locului i respect vecintatea printr-o volumetrie modest, ce va mixa detaliile contemporane cu
materiale i tehnologii aproape uitate n ara noastr.
Moza House
The project pertains to a house that stood abandoned for years in a modest and typical neighborhood
of the Banat region, with its main facade aligned to the street side and its two traditional rooms, one
for guests and the other for dowry, permanently closed with wooden rollers. Large, cool rooms filled
with naphthalene odor, religious icons, and family pictures from vacations to the seaside in the 60s,
an improvised kitchen in the hallway with a closet attached from which you could still feel the scent of
smoked ham, a simple volumetric shape, a two way sloped roof, a rigid plan functionality for what the
owners requested, degraded masonry work and finishes. All these factors were leading to the simple
solution of demolishing the existing house and to provide a new, contemporary type of architecture to
astound. The Moza House is first of all an exercise of honesty the architect made in relation with the
existing built environment, suggesting an architecture which tackles the memory and the surroundings
of that peculiar place by solving the contemporary demands through the usage of archaic technologies
and materials.

A deceivingly simple plan which rose right fromthe landscape shapes
recognizing its unique lake view location. The project was particularly
successful when taking care of its geometry both on the inside and on
the outside. It is both framed within and frames the landscape thus
creating an atmosphere which demands a visitor to abide in order
to feel its composition, its concept clarity and its detail expression.
The project depicts the easiness to touch resulting fromfluency that is
highly sensitive to its surroundings.
