项目概况:

The building designed by Idomis located in María Díaz de Haro Street, close to the main avenue of the cityof Bilbao, the Gran Via. The plot measures 20 meters between the party walls ofthe adjoining buildings by 70 meters deep, and forms part of one of the blocksof the Ensanche (widening of the city) of Bilbao. Below ground, the building occupies the entire plot. The main façade has been designed as a vibrating glass front that increases the perception of thebuilding, breaking with the flatness of the street and emphasizing its location. The design seeks great transparency, allowing the workings of thebuilding and the structure to be understood from the exterior. The outer glassskin is printed with extracts of texts from some of the documents preservedwithin the archive, in such a way that the building is not seen as sealedplace, private and closed off from the citizen. The interior façade has beendesigned with a language that tries to establish a formal dialogue with therest of the buildings of the block, while retaining the contemporary characterof the building. This façade and garden seeks to project a friendly image tothe users of the courtyard, dignifying a typology normally uncared for in the buildings of the Ensanche. In the interior of the building, we have opted for double height ceilings, with visible crossing points that will enrich the relationship between the different uses existing in the building. The planned work areas are clear, free of columns and flexible in order to facilitateadaptability to possible functional changes. The ground floor, first floor and part of the first basement floor are for the main lobby, reception area, and several exhibition rooms.
