Social Buildings in the Stadium Casablanca | Magén Arquitectos

The Casablanca Stadium in Zaragoza is really a sports club and social club founded in 1948, presently has some 25,000 people so they cover approximately section of ten hectares around the southern fringe of town, near the Imperial Canal of Aragon and also the natural place Pinares of Venice. The facilities could be arranged into two sorts: individuals devoted to sports, and individuals for social area and bar / restaurant. The project approaches the reform and extension from the social zone and also the bar – restaurant, which organizes concerning the central square, which comprises a paved space, terrace – viewing-point, towards the existing structures are orientated, formalizing a location of access, meeting and relation in prolongation from the headquarters and available to natural landscape which looks out. The relation between your program that’s required and also the place conditions, along with the ease of the execution from the intervention for phases, it enables to aid forever in functioning the bar – restaurant, approachs towards a conceptual very obvious, functional and organizationally very structured. The proposal, therefore, contemplates two phases of execution: an initial phase approaches the making of a brand new building, event gazebo, ampliation of bar-restaurant, taking up a part of a current road, and fixing the uneveness using the horizontal plane from the square for the fringe of the zones of tracks. This new platform provides options, both at an amount of square like a lower level to support new uses: sportive offices, press room, and polyvalent spaces… permitting other hands, solve, and organize routs and pedestrian accessibility different levels (square and track zone) About this platform and making use of advantage the circumstances of orientation and sights, will elevate the amount from the new restaurant. It’s created as an area the landscape enabling an immediate relationship with this surrounds character by presenting her in the interior. The sunshine controlled by large structural ribs from the wavy facades which are oriented towards the forest of pines, the suspended ceiling folded of wood, and also the cracked skylight, produces an environment that blurs the limitations of interior space using the exterior. Once performed this primary phase that’s performed by a brand new building within the later court which consists of all of the services, kitchen areas in various plants, cores of communications, facilities … to fixing service access, loading and unloading from the new bar – restaurant, it undertakes the 2nd phase of recovery and adjustment of both existing structures for complementary spaces from the social activities from the Club. The thought of attempting to endow towards the group of a particular entity and representation having a formal significant and unitary image leads us to carrying out a transformation of absorption from the existing factor with architectural solutions that response to the brand new uses which give spot to new situations, marketing the thought of unit, formalization and integration from the already established space, from the square. The development is solved by having an right selection of materials: aluminum for that facades, in trays or lattice, glass and wood for woodworking, as well as in-situ concrete for that plinth and square.
