Article source: Vaillo + Irigaray Architects. INFRAESTRUCTRUAL LANDMARK Gamesa is a multinational company engaged in the manufacture and maintenance of wind turbines for green energy production. The building is situated in a micro-suburban landscape into a business park. This technology park is characterized by an implantation of buildings in isolation, in a green environment. Surrounded by road links, the project responds as a great infraestructural landmark, as a large transparent tank. An autonomous geometry floating on a green hillside.

Interior nighttime lighting for safety. Transparency of the facade and interior-exterior bidirectional visibility. And, very important, reducing energy consumption of all facilities.

It is the top of a small green hill. The building is seen from kilometers away, from the highway. The existing lighting in the immediate environment as an “urban fringe style”: weak, unsaturated, orange and manufacturing. The new tank-building acquires the nuances of a glassy-liquid solid, the deep green of the LEDs. This color is conjugated whit the green inner liners and is visible from the outside. No corporate label is installed on the facade.
