It is interesting that the design of this theater emerged from an architectural competition. And it was precisely about how long the journey was from winning among almost fifty proposals to the final realization that we talked with Milan Rak.
The proposals of ARCHTEAM were recently present in several domestic competitions, often among the awarded and recognized works. The ambition to win a significant public contract in the competition seemingly balances with a completely different type of contracts, through which ARCHTEAM has also entered wider awareness – designs of affordable type houses that far exceed the domestic catalog average. And although Milan Rak, with his thoughtful and simple designs, cannot compete in the number of realizations with the flood of the most despicable and still the most popular "smurf" houses, he evidently does not suffer from a lack of work even in today's times. Even so, just to be sure, at the end of the interview, he gets up from the glass table and, so that luck does not abandon him, goes to knock on the wooden bookshelf...
