Saturday, November 20th, 2021

Article source: Aedas

Located on the west bank of the Yamuna River close to a plethora of cultural and historical sites along New Delhi’s Central Vista Avenue (Rajpath), Pragati Maidan has been an important area of civic interaction since it was designated as a national exhibition space in 1972. Aedas, in a consortium with Arcop, won the international architectural design competition in 2016 to re-plan the 123.5 acres site and to design a world-class venue for the city. Known as the International Exhibition & Convention Centre (IECC), the project will provide over 100,000 sq m of exhibition space with a Convention Centre at a planned capacity of 13,500 people.

West Point Convenience Center in Zapopan, Mexico by LEAP Laboratorio en Arquitectura Progresiva

Sunday, December 8th, 2019

Article source: LEAP Laboratorio en Arquitectura Progresiva

West Point Convenience Center is a retail venue and the most visible component of a mixed use development located on the westside of Guadalajara. The master plan of the complex is comprised of eight high-rise vertical housing buildings in a gated community with inner pedestrian walkways, a park and controlled access points. The retail venue, although it is an integral part of the master plan, is at the forefront of the complex outside the gated community and with large green areas on both sides of the building. The preeminent location of the building within the master plan and its relationship with the public avenue demands an architectural approach to give the building an iconic presence. It is important to highlight that the Convenience Center will be also a focal point from the views of the eight apartment buildings on the background, and therefore the design of the roof was as important as the design of the main facades at street level. The result is a triangular faceted architectural object with two wide openings at each end where the second level restaurants are located and a screen that randomly becomes more transparent towards the center of the building. The complexity of the geometry of this element contrast with the seemingly simple geometry of the first floor, both bodies are articulated through the rhythm of the columns. The construction material proposed for the upper body of the building is Cor-Ten steel, a material that naturally covers itself of protective rust, making it a maintenance free material. Three steel chimneys contrast with the rusty look of the building and are the exhaust ducts of the restaurants inside the Convenience Center.

Cultural center and Library ‘De Factorij’ in Zaventem, Belgium by ebtca architecten

Sunday, November 3rd, 2019

Article source: ebtca architecten

Site

The former Suchard factory site in Zaventem was transformed into the “The Factory” cultural site which is intended to lend the town centre a whole new look. The Suchard site is a long stretch of terrain; a ‘lost’ piece of land situated between the backs of the stores on Stationstraat and the houses on Seliersstraat and the railway on the other side. This site was also subject to a strict “BPA” (special development plan). The development of this site was a surefire socio-cultural injection for the town centre. The bordering presence of the academy with its green surroundings and gorgeous trees broadened and enhanced this site and will make it the green anchoring point leading to the town. The entire project developed into one masterplan: ‘culture site Suchard’.

Programme

In addition to a library, The Factory also features a large theatre with 679 seats and a multifunctional hall. The main building has a large foyer, a cultural cafe, a dance and ballet hall and rehearsal spaces for music and recitals, party halls, catering, exhibition rooms, conference and meeting rooms and artists’ residences on top of the administrative areas. The playhouse itself is equipped with a full-fledged theatre, theatre storage spaces and studios as well as a mobile orchestra pit (with elevator) for an orchestra of approx. 30 musicians.

New Exhibition And Convention Hall in Liège, Belgium by Archipelago Architects

Monday, August 5th, 2019

Article source: Archipelago Architects

The Spanish office of Francisco Mangado, in partnership with the Belgian archipelago I baev studio,  has won the first prize in the international competition for the construction of  a new Exhibition and Convention Hall in Liège (BE).

An exhibition ground like this, object of this competition, possesses -in addition to the character of public equipment and services- an institutional dimension, by converting an architectural problem in a magnificent opportunity to transform the immediate urban environment as well as to improve the city, seen as an architectural reference. We are not facing the construction of a simple building, but rather than to one of those opportunities that, sometimes, undertake the city and its inhabitants, thus forging urban history. For us, this is the only way, an unequaled perspective to approach this project. We are not just realizing a building, we are setting up a part of the city.
