"Croatian architecture firm 3LHD recently finished the Zamet Center in Rijeka, an industrial port city in Croatia.
The center is a brand new building that will have a great impact on the local community. The project is a hybrid, with mixed use facilities: multipurpose sports hall, new library, civic center, local administration offices, bars, shops and a parking garage.


Situated in Rijeka’s quarter Zamet, the new Zamet Centre in complete size of 16,830 m2 hosts various facilities: sports hall with max 2,380 seats, local community offices, library, 13 retail and service spaces and a garage with 250 parking spaces.
One third of the sports hall’s volume is cut in the ground, and the rest of the Centre is fully fitted into the surrounding landscape. The building’s main architectural element are ribbon-like linear stripes stretching over the site in a north-south direction, functioning at the same time as an architectural design element of the object and as a zoning element which forms a public square and a link between the park on the north and school and B. Vidas street on the south..."
