Description submitted by the project team. Postindustrial Aesthetics: The building houses microbiological chemical analysis laboratories with highly complex functional facilities… this requires great efficiency in its final use… compatible with a hyper-advanced image that, in parallel, wants to produce emotion… the building has a marked character of postindustrial aesthetic.

Urban Reactivator: Which reactivates the powerful surrounding industrial landscape through its perforated facades, filters the environment and generates its own interior landscape. Hypertechnological face: The design of its exterior volumetry is based on the hypertechnology of high-speed trains and also on the triangular geometry of the dome of the Hall of Ambassadors and on the transition of spaces of the Reales Alcázares of Seville, it is technology in dialogue with tradition, the past related to the present and the future.

Bioclimatic active skins: The building protects itself from the sun, configuring its own shading thanks to the broken design that makes it slide along its double façade – it is composed of an interior glass envelope and a super-perforated exterior aluminum envelope, generated with parametric systems -computational between both, the solar chimney effect is created and is qualified depending on each orientation: to the North with large perforations; To the West it is more opaque, with small perforations; To the east it receives the morning sun through variable perforations, and to the south – where the building facilities are located – it is practically closed. Exterior skins, variable geometry: The exterior skin has variable geometry with its perforations that filter and diffuse the light, creating a more intimate interior space. The interior glass skin, with functional geometry, surrounds the laboratories.

Functional strata: The interior is configured in superimposed spatial strata, generating a high spatial complexity, through the extension and superimposed sliding of the different spaces and volumes. Thus, the building hints at an advance towards the existing environment. The staircase-sculpture: This complexity is concentrated in the large central staircase-sculpture that organizes the building and on which the overhead light descends from the skylights.

Hypertransparencies: The interiors are illuminated, with sunlight filtered through the skylights, crossing the transparent glass planes with light and shadow treatments. Beautiful, reflective and mysterious spaces emerge, with optimal conditions to live and work in them.

Friendly accessibility: A ramp-bridge over the void of the patio allows Universal Accessibility to the ground floor, elevated from the street. Weightlessness and lightness: The building rises, generating a sensation of weightlessness. It is suspended, with a large cantilever, floating and leaving a threshold area that allows it to filter into the sky and the landscape as occurred in many Arab architectures.

Superstructure: A building of great sophistication, made of reinforced concrete and steel, allowing for large spans and very open spaces, necessary for the operation of the laboratory. It is visible on the lower faces of the façade, so that it is configured as a slab-grid in which the exterior parameters of composite and double-sided aluminum and perforated merge, thus achieving a clean meeting and finish between materials. Recyclable materials: Concrete, steel, glass and aluminum, recyclable, This play of materials enhances the expression of the building’s concept Spatial symbiosis: All of this reflects the idea of its conception as a spatial symbiosis that generates the sensation of an expectant and magical stillness in its inhabitants.
