Teatre Auditori Torredembarra in Spain by NAM Arq + NUA arquitectures

The proposal is based on the will by the City Hall of Enabling the lobby of the current Teatre de Torredembarra. We believe that the Torrencs deserve much more than a hallway enabled in an abandoned theater. Regardless of its current state and its architecture, the building is now a faulty reference point in a gray period for the history of Torredembarra.

We wanted to raise a new concept of building first from a more versatile and versatile program. Do Torredembarra really need only a large theater-auditorium? Why not think of a more versatile building that can accommodate much of the cultural needs of the municipality? We think of small shows, performances, exhibitions, talks or conferences, various workshops, concerts of different formats, artistic events, experimental theater, …

Another of the concepts that we have wanted to incorporate is that of a closer and austere image, avoiding bright, noble or bright materials. We believe that the building should represent how we discussed the new ways of doing and we have therefore opted for warm, near, sustainable, low cost and low maintenance materials. Based on wood and galvanized iron plates, our proposal is developed avoiding stainless steels, marble or stucco. The rest of materials such as pavements, ceilings and walls will be painted in dark gray to work like a dark box in the face of the spectacles that can be developed. It also incorporates a facade exterior treatment system that will gradually disappear the existing building. A progressive exercise as the different phases are developed to erase the memory of what exists and to represent a new way of doing things at the municipal level. In this way the one posed is a “lined” of the current building by means of a new lightweight and very economical material that will bring a new aesthetic and apparent volumetry in a dialogue between the vacuum and full and without altering the building at the level of Structure, covers and finishes. It is about gradually placing a veil in the current building.

The signage has been finally incorporated as a dynamic element that, from its installation on the front and indoors, will also allow signaling to make users understand the versatility and richness of this building.
