這個項目帶給我們兩個挑戰(zhàn)：一個是設計“像城市一樣”的建筑—因為其獨特性和建筑的公共性。二是圍繞建筑漫步時能看到遠處的景觀，同時建筑內(nèi)部的展覽廳則具有內(nèi)省的特點。

換而言之，就是一座讓身處其間的我們感受到與城市產(chǎn)生緊密聯(lián)系的“如城市一般”的建筑。

我們采用將展覽廳抬高的方法解決了這兩個難題。這樣，地面層便可以空出來，成為更加開放和透明的空間—大廳和商店。我們的目標是將其打造成公共空間，讓公園穿過建筑下方向城市延伸。夜晚，燈光照亮穿孔外表皮形成的圖案，閃耀的圖案隱藏了抬升展覽廳下方的支撐結構。升起的展覽廳下方是半地下花園。該花園是觀眾廳的出入口，同時也是前廳和室外餐飲區(qū)。這樣，由大廳可到達的地下觀眾廳也成為了半地下結構，并通過花園與城市直接聯(lián)系在一起。

兩個懸浮的展覽廳交錯相對，參觀者從其中一間展廳出來可以看到另一個展廳下方的城市景觀。我們認為兩個展覽廳之間需要一些放松的空間，因此，采用了自動扶梯將它們連接起來，這樣為參觀者帶來一段欣賞遠處城市景觀的美好旅程，彌補電梯所帶來的壓抑感。

建筑的上部結構是咖啡廳和餐廳，由此可以看到城市景觀。與之相對的是因兩個展覽廳高度差形成的露臺酒吧。酒吧與室內(nèi)餐廳一起為參觀者帶來Ranillas河灣和薩拉戈薩世博會園區(qū)的美麗景致。

獨特合理的結構讓建筑看起來像極了矗立于公園中的雕塑。我們希望建筑可以成為技術和文化繁榮的標志，反映我們時代最美好事物。

We start the project by posing two challenges:

The fi rst: to design a building that can ‘feel like a city’–both due to its uniqueness and to the public spaces it generates.

The second: to design a building which connects with distant perspectives when walking around, providing at the same time introspection when inside its exhibition halls.

In other words, a building which ‘feels like a city’ and which makes us feel part of it when we inhabit it.

We solve these two challenges by raising the level of the halls. This allows freeing the ground fl oor, where we place the more open and transparent spaces: the lobby and the store. Our aim is to create public spaces,make the park extend into the city by passing under the building–a space which is lit at night with drawings obtained by perforating the plate, which in addition hides the structure supporting the elevated halls.

Below the raised halls we place a semi-underground garden that serves as the exit to the auditorium and which can also be considered an anteroom or outdoors catering area. Thus, the auditorium–located underground and accessible through the lobby–can be considered as halfway underground and directly connected to the city thanks to the garden.

The two suspended halls face each other at diあerent levels in a way that the visitor who exits one hall has a view of the city below the other hall. We believe decompression and relaxation areas are necessary between both halls–i.e., between exhibitions. With this aim, the two halls are connected by escalators, offering a journey which allows us to enjoy the distant views–completely different from the decontextualisation produced by elevators and which cannot oあer the visitor any type of decompression.

On the upper part of the building and with views to the city are the coあee shop and the restaurant. Opposite to them and created by the diあerent levels between halls, there is a terrace-bar which–keeping with the indoors restaurant–allows to enjoy fantastic views of the Ranillas meander and Expo Zaragoza

Thanks to its unique and feasible structure, our building appears as a sculptural element amidst the park.

We want our building to become a symbol of the progress of the technique and generosity of culture–we want it to be a re fl ection of only the best things of our times.
