Article source: oe architect The short-lived LAN – 4 proposal stood out among several proposals from different countries. For the Festival of Architecture and Design of Logroño, Spain for its Concentrico 06 edition, this winning project arises from the abstraction of the most used figure of wine. Its peculiar and elongated figure with that elegant touch of the glass, creates the concept, a form that is a tribute to the quality and prestige of the wine.  Image Courtesy © Josema Cutillas

Its exterior faces are made up of a mirror-skin, a similarity to the elegant glass of the bottle of wine and creates a reflection of its changing environment, throughout the course of the year.

Approaching it is perceived as a climatic barrier alluding to the mountains, but in the distance it merges with the landscape, in a poetic element, which depends on the location of the viewer, shows a facet of its location. The tower has an opening at the top that allows you to see the sky. It should be noted that, according to the Festival organizers, the project was going to be withdrawn at the end of the festival, but the visitors and their loved ones liked it so much, that they decided to leave it for a year in the vineyard, it was present in edition 07, ending this It was decided to withdraw it from Viña Lanciano, it has been the ephemeral proposal until the longest time.
