Thermal Center in Bande

Competition Year 2022   Architects: Diego Díaz Mosqueira Gustavo Figueira Serrano Alba Álvarez Vázquez   Renders: Bump Estudio    Location: Bande, Spain   THERMAL CENTER IN BANDE The "IMPLUVIUM" project is a proposal for the construction of a thermal center in the Municipality of Bande, aiming to enhance and utilize the existing mineral and thermal water area. The central concept of the project is inspired by the classic impluvium, an architectural element of Roman and Greek houses designed to collect rainwater.   Concept and Design The impluvium, a central pond for collecting rainwater, serves as the main inspiration for the design development. The proposal adapts this classic concept to modern needs and the environment, with water as the central element of the space, meanwhile all the enclosed spaces needed run along this central pivotal space. The circular shape of the impluvium provides fluidity and flexibility, contrasting with more orthogonal schemes.   Massing and Materiality The main building takes the form of a circle or cylinder, with a central circular void from...

National Packaging Research Center

Competition "WINNER" Year 2022   Architects: Diego Díaz Mosqueira Gustavo Figueira Serrano Alba Álvarez Vázquez Collaborators: SOG Design Renders: Bump Estudio Location: Calahorra, Spain   CNTE. National Packaging Research Center The project for the "National Center for Packaging Technologies (CNTE)" reflects the concepts of sustainable and modular architecture, designed to be a benchmark in the field of packaging technology. The central idea of the project is the implementation of a 10x10 meter module, which is prefabricated and adaptable to various environmental conditions. This modular approach not only enhances energy efficiency by integrating innovative solutions such as solar panels and skylights but also provides flexibility in terms of future expansion and adaptation. The proposal is characterized by the creation of a volume and a final shape that emerge from the repetition of this module. This strategy results in a unified architectural envelope that encapsulates the entire building program under a single cover. Among the most distinctive features of the design are the diagonal lines that run across the...
