Article source: MIAS Architects The project proposes the reorganization of the main welcome space of the park. The new Plaza del Tibidabo acts as a prelude to the character and philosophy of the amusement park and the Collserola mountain. The proposal proposes a public space that allows the different elements of the park to be organized, as well as a place to hold events and welcome visitors. The project is built as a large continuous carpet of precast concrete paving stones that extend throughout the main space as an element that homogenizes and allows the placement of all the different objects – fast food places, ice cream, drinks and games; which are randomly positioned according to the client needs.

On this threshold, between the park and the mountain of Collserola, the project builds a new facade over the existing office building at this point of confluence between greenery, attractions and Barcelona.

The intervention refers to the park that surrounds Tibidabo, mixing and camouflaging itself with its natural environment. The garden is composed of different species of Collserola and at the same time becomes a “hotel” for insects. Part of this new facade is the perimeter tier that delimits the public space and acts as a space for celebration and rest for visitors. Along with this space, different pieces of furniture designed for the occasion, accompany the proposal. Pergolas in the form of large daisies will shade tables and chairs that remind us of park characters and anticipate the playful nature of the proposal.
