Revalorization and Transformation of the Amorphous "Poljana" Square into the Main Square of Šibenik - Croatia
"Poljana" ("Campo"), the main square of Šibenik, the heart of its historic centre, expresses the life of the town. Although it has lost some of its social functions of co-operation and unity of citizens that it had when it was created, its primary role - communication among people - could not be taken over by new communication media - simply because this square is a life symbol. Poljana gives the true identity to the man-town, it enables people meeting people, life and world. The significance of the square, especially in Mediterranean region, should be redefined - not for formal reasons, but for the need of returning the town to man. Therefore, through the "extended" re-design of an old building (Krešimirov dom) on the Poljana square, the "Team 4" proposed a new "cardo", in order to transform functionally and spatially the amorphous "Campo" into the real town square. This intervention removes the car traffic, and transforms Poljana into a broad pedestrian street, linking different parts of the town. Consequently, the new-shaped square becomes a spatial integrator, whereas it is not the case now. Authors' intention was to create a new town of Šibenik, preserving its authentic urban substance and enriching it to full value.
