New Social Buildings in Stadium Casablanca \ Cerrejon architects Posted: 22 Nov 2011 07:24 AM PST The Casablanca Stadium in Zaragoza is a sports club and social club founded in 1948, currently has some 25,000 members and covers an approximate area of ten hectares on the southern edge of town, next to the Imperial Canal of Aragon and the natural place Pinares of Venice. The facilities can be grouped into two types: those dedicated to sports, and those for social area and bar / restaurant. The project approaches the reform and extension of the social zone and the bar – restaurant, which one organizes about the central square, which constitutes a paved space, terrace – viewing-point, towards that the existing buildings are orientated, formalizing a place of access, meeting and relation in prolongation of the headquarters and open to the natural landscape which looks out. The relation between the program that is demanded and the place conditions, as well as the convenience of the execution of the intervention for phases, that it allows to support always in functioning the bar – restaurant, approachs towards a conceptual very clear, functional and organizationally very structured. The proposal, therefore, contemplates two phases of execution: a first phase approaches the construction of a new building, gazebo, ampliation of bar-restaurant, occupying part of an existing road, and solving the uneveness taking the horizontal plane of the square towards the edge of the zones of tracks. This new platform provides possibilities, both at a level of square as a lower level to accommodate new uses: sportive offices, press room, and polyvalent spaces… allowing other hand, solve, and organize routs and pedestrian access to the different levels (square and track zone) On this platform and utilizing advantage the conditions of orientation and views, will elevate the volume of the new restaurant. It is conceived as an open space the landscape enabling a direct relationship with that surrounds nature by introducing her in his interior. The light controlled by large structural ribs of the wavy facades that are oriented to the forest of pines, the suspended ceiling folded of wood, and the cracked skylight, creates an atmosphere that blurs the boundaries of interior space with the exterior. Once executed this first phase that is completed by a new building in the later court and that contains all the services, kitchens in different plants, cores of communications, facilities … to solving service access, loading and unloading of the new bar – restaurant, it undertakes the second phase of recovery and adjustment of both existing buildings for complementary spaces of the social activities of the Club. The idea of wanting to endow to the set of a certain entity and representation with a formal significant and unitary image leads us to doing a transformation of absorption of the existing thing with architectural solutions that answer to the new uses and that give place to new situations, promoting the idea of unit, formalization and integration of the already existing space, of the square. The construction is solved with an right choice of materials: aluminum for the facades, in trays or lattice, glass and wood for carpentry, and in-situ concrete for the plinth and square. + Project factsWork: New Social Buildings in the Stadium Casablanca of Zaragoza Architects: Sebastián Cerrejón Hidalgo and Jaime Magén Pardo Sponsor: Stadium Casablanca Canon Fundation + All images and drawings courtesy Cerrejon architects | Photo by Jesús Granada |
Facilities for Children and Youth Sport Activities “La Camisera” \ Cerrejon architects Posted: 22 Nov 2011 06:43 AM PST The origins of this Project lie in the relationship between the sports placed at the facilities and the features of the site: a 25,226 m2 plot of land with a sep downward slope and marked drops in height towards the west and towards the neighbouring green space to the north. This proposal meets the needs established in the list of requirements, particularly those concerning the acommodation of the three playing fields, with the necessary north-south orientation, on the site. Thus the porposal includes three large, horizontal, tiered platforms, adapted to the relief of the land, containing the main entrance and the multi-sports court; the 11-a-side football pitch; and the 7-a-side football pitch, respectively. The location of the main entrance in the south-east of the premises, the internal movement and the layout of the various buildings and playing fields are also in line with other urban considerations concerning the plot's location between the Oliver anf Miralbueno districts, and between the built-up area in the south and the park in the north. On the basis of these initial considerations, the proposal is for an open-plan system, with isolated buildings between the lawn of the playing fields and the vegetation, seeking a suitable relationship between the premises and the landscape. The inner routes and urban spaces created (entrance area, porches, shelters, viewing areas, etc.) are functional items which also act to unite the premises as a whole. The project aims to provide the facilities with a certain unifying, formal, constructive quality by using only two materials, concrete and galvanised steel, both in the buildings and in the constructed items which define the inner spaces, establishing a close relationship between the facilities and their components. The layout of the buildings is based on a highly linear, horizontal structure, with long porches marking the transit areas. In the general service and changing-room buildings, the prefabricated concrete panels covering the external, facades, and the galvanised steel panels in the interior and the porch ceiling, denote a systematic, modular character, in line with the appearance of pavilions which these buildings strive for. The changing-room building has a certain prototypical character, repeated in different positions and with different relationships for each of the playing fields. The general service pavilion is a linear building which folds over itself, from the entrance to the overhanging area overlooking the park, creating various inner spaces (entrance area, porch, green space, viewing area), housing cafeteria, lockers, officers, halls and a gymnasium. A polycarbonate mass over the entrance lends character to this space, and allows it to be lit up at night. The shelters covering the stands and entrance conceal the structural mechanisms supporting these major overhanging areas. This allows a more abstract, direct interpretation of these items, as they were desingned, as galvanised steel planes of a certain thickness, resting on a row of pillars (in the case of the stands) or concrete walls (in the case of the entrance shelter). + Project factsWork: Facilities for Children and Youth Sport Activities “La Camisera” in the Oliver Neighborhood of Zaragoza Architects: Sebastián Cerrejón Hidalgo and Jaime Magén Pardo + All images and drawings courtesy Cerrejon architects | Photo by Roland Halbe |
Museum and Archaeological Park “Cabezo de la Almagra” \ Cerrejon architects Posted: 22 Nov 2011 06:07 AM PST As a result of a series of contests promoted by the Town hall of Huelva for the arrangement of a series of free spaces of the City. Appears this project which poses to value the archeological patrimony of the city, ordering a space which will enhance the image from the new highway access and at the same time, it will become the gateway to the campus “Carmen” of the University of Huelva. The Cabezo of the Almagra is a natural is a natural promontory, watchtower and place of agricultural accession, along the history to the present day, of stages as the Roman, Muslim, the implantation of the farmhouse in modern age, and the process of destruction of great part of the archaeological set with the construction of the current highway. Show the history of Huelva and explain the place across the archeological discoveries is the aim of the Cabezo of the Almagra's park, with which is put in value the patrimony of the city. The park contemplates on top of this hill a lookout interpretive center, which will be the generator, recognizable and element of reference, focal point of the network of roads and articulator of the museum outdoors, an informative support of the contents of the space. In this building the visitor will be informed about the archeological set, as well as of the importance of the finds and the interpretation of the same ones inside the context where they were located, related to Onuba’s city and with the road which leads to Híspalis. It is developed in two lifted floors and a basement in which will be stayed the area of workshops and the laboratory. The ground-level floor will be the explanatory area. It will be conceived as a large room communicated with the outside world through hollows and ramps which leads the visitor towards the archeological remains. It is structured as an internal extension of the find, offering an opened and visible itinerary across him, from where you can capture the finds in-situ of the site. Through this plant and promoting the idea of continuous movement, the interpretation center turns into a great lookout, from where it will be possible admire the landscape of the archelogical park, the city, the university campus and the marshes of the Tinto river. Since the flag will depart roads like a cobweb on the Cabezo, fitting out between them areas to rest and landscaped areas. The project tries to recover the image of cabezo and contemplates the planting of autochthonous and spontaneous species, ornamental plants and trees which were populating the hill in historical ages, as well as credited the remains found. A few materials define formally the performance. A covered structure with opaque surfaces is raised and seems to float on the soil. The iron is capable of reflecting the passage of time of a recognizable way and durable, is expressing of multiple ways. The iron's oxide melts past and present, and evidences our cultural identity, which is associated with characteristic colour of the Tinto river and its marshes. + Project factsWork: Museum and Archaeological Park "Cabezo de la Almagra" in the Campus of the University of Huelva Architect: Sebastián Cerrejón Hidalgo | http://cerrejonarquitectos.wordpress.com/ Sponsors: Municipal Management of Urbanism Town Hall of Huelva + All images and drawings courtesy Cerrejon architects | Photo by Roland Halbe |
