GDSB and Marvel Architects to resume Les Tres Xemeneies in Spain
GDSB architects and Marvel architects seem as winners of the worldwide design competitors for Les Tres Xemeneies (the three baskets). This adaptive reuse mission can be remodel Barcelona Iconic energy plant within the santa adrià de Besòs within the metropolis of Media Catalunya. The proposal considers a digital and media hub, whereas holding the three chimneys, symbols of the commercial previous of metropolisvia a collection of strategic architectural interventions that weave the construction within the city cloth. Chosen between 26 contributors in a two-stage competitors, the successful design units the scene for a artistic ecosystem.

The successful proposal respects the previous of the monumental construction
Initially constructed within the 1970s as a part of a thermal energy plant, Les Tres Xemeneies ceased operations in 2011, abandoning a monumental construction between Barcelona and Badalona. Based mostly in Barcelona GDSB architects and Marvel Architects The successful scheme respects the historic significance of the positioning, whereas making area connections to combine it with its environment. The design introduces deliberate reductions and openings inside the current industrial shell, creating porous and adaptable areas for media manufacturing, know-how and cultural programming. This strategy ensures that the boiler retains its hanging silhouette whereas evolving in an accessible and multifunctional landmark.
Whereas the chimneys stay probably the most acknowledged attribute of the positioning, the main target of the mission consists within the revitalization of the turbine – an expansive construction initially designed with three modular sections, every equivalent to a chimney. The architects embraced this modular rhythm, increasing the room with a further module to create a balanced, symmetrical composition. This intervention improves the area potential of the constructing, whereas sustaining a dialogue with its industrial origins.

development to get out of the subsequent few years
With the anticipated development within the coming years, Les Tres Xemeneies is a will of the potential for adaptive reuse in modeling tomorrow. Positioned as the guts of the town of Catalunya Media, the Reimaginated Advanced will host a vibrant mixture of artistic industries, technological analysis and digital experiences. A central courtyard, launched as a part of the redesign, brings pure mild and air flow deep into the constructing, creating an environment. Spatially, the mission establishes a transparent distinction between the previous and the long run, the primary three flooring unifying the present and new constructions, whereas the higher ranges are subtly separate to spotlight the distinction between the heritage and the modern interventions. By increasing the amount with out exceeding the preliminary peak, the design reaches a sense of steadiness – believing the commercial inheritance of the positioning with its function within the digital age.
