COMPETITION
BRIEF
RBR:360 asks the applicant to develop their own program and locate
a site or sites to reuse the brise soleil of the iconic Round Building
in Downtown Orlando.
RBR:360 is looking for innovative and diverse ideas for it’s
reuse. Participants are asked to explore the reuse of a modernist
artifact into the present day landscape of Central Florida.
|
- It is preferred that the site be in the Central Florida Area. Defined on
the Location(s) tab. Applicants can choose other sites, with explanation
in their narrative text.
- It is suggested that the site not be part of the site of the DPPAC or the
other Orlando venues. If used on the DPPAC site the ring cannot occupy
its current intact footprint.- RBR:360 has three suggested sites in the
Orlando area. They can be found on the locations tab. They do not have
to be the site chosen by the applicant; they are simply a jumping off point. |
- The brise soleil is made of 120 individual diamond stacked panels linked together
as a ring with an approximately 125’ diameter. All 120 panels of the
brise soleil must be used. |
