*빌바오, 다중첩 링크 스퀘어 [ Xpiral and MTM Arquitectos ] Pormetxeta Square

반응형

헥사곤 구름속에 우리는 천천히
산책을 한다.
포메셋타 광장 프로젝트는
낙후된 산업도시를 문화관광산업 도시로
탈바꿈시킨 스페인 빌바오 공공 프로젝트의
일환으로 계획되었다.

재미있는 것은 이곳 광장사이트가
가지고 있는 지형적 특징을
(네르비온 강가에 위치한 가파른 구릉지대)
십분 활용하여
새로운 형태의 광장을 모색한 점이다.
20미터가 넘는 수직레벨을
다중첩 공간으로 변화 시켜
공공의 문화및 쉼을 위한 공간,
그리고 각 지점들을 연결하는
링크포인트로써의 공간으로 계획하였다.
그리고 진행과 멈춤,소통의 공간을
새로운 지오메트릭의 형태로
구현하여 자연스럽게 연결 및
분리가 되도록 구성하였다.

또한 봄의 새싹처럼 유니크한
스트리트 퍼니처는 광장과 연결되어 있는
공간들(철도 플랫폼, 고속도로 연결로,
강의 프롬나드의 출입구,
길가의 보행자)과 광장사이의
 버퍼존을 만드는 장치물로써
그 임무를 훌륭히 수행한다.

Spanish studios Xpiral and MTM Arquitectos have completed a public square
sheltered by steel trees that hold nets of boulders.


Pormetxeta Square, on a former industrial site in the Basque town of Barakaldo near Bilbao, creates a series of new thoroughfares, reconnecting the town centre with the river.



Hexagonal coloured tiles have been used to give variety to the ground surfaces, which have street furniture fixed to them by springs.



Pormetxeta Square, in Barakaldo (Bilbao)

The new Pormetxeta Square, located close to the Nervion River, was the result of the Competition “Europan VI” developed in 2001.


The project was selected to take part in the Spanish Architecture Exhibition – On Site – that was organized at MoMA from New York in 2006; lately the exhibited model has been acquired by the museum for the permanent collection.



Industrial identity

The district of Barakaldo is located in a very steep slope territory above the Nervion River, where a complex urban planning was developed in the Sixties and was leaded by “Blast Furnace from Vizcaya”.


We have proposed to provide it with a new geography identity, by forgetting and removing the last urban planning that Urban-Galindo had created for this area.



Marrow of Urban Permeability

We modified the existing planning in order to created the New Square of Barakaldo (25.223m2), for the purpose to create to new advantages for the city: on the one hand a new access point to the urban centre, on the other hand a better fluidity and mobility from the city to the river, due to the industrial factories were shut in the permeability of the city.



Equipped Communications Arteries

The very steep slope of the plot has become in an opportunity of creation of a new urban typology. Taking advantage of the high difference between existing levels that it is 20 meters between the upper level and the bottom level of the plot, building a equipped slope, “the Pormetxeta Square”, with the next strategy:



First of all several access and approach are linked: the railway platform, the highway connection, the entry towards the promenade river, the pedestrian and road streets, the access from the high street, the reached from the low street, the Desert Square, the school …



Secondly we have save all the space that is just under of each “Pormetxeta Ramp” in order to get 2.341m2 of commercial and service public facility.



The third advantage is working as a micro-public space: micro-squares, points of meeting, rest stands, outdoors stays, in other words building a phenomenological sequence.



And the last advantage is that it is acting as a multifunctional element, it works as a street furniture, balustrade, pergola, lantern… creating a very equipped place.



The animated square

The Pormetxeta Square appears under the long ramps. There are some holes that qualify the space with playgrounds and it is become in a unique topography. A big artificial trees of 11.5m tall, that are made of COR-TEN steel, hang boulders on the cup of the tree, they work as a parasol and under them the only things that you can feel are the laughter of children, the roller skaters, the talks…



The Pormetxeta Square and the different levels routes, that make up at the same time an unique project and also and an in independent project, due to the contrast between both intensify their purpose.



Architectura vs Urbanism
Our aim it is to build city. Understanding the public space and private space as hybridization between the city planning and the edification model, where the Architecture and the Urbanism are mixed at all times.



Consequently we have planned an urban strategy as a business and dialogue platform between citizens, creating a new social cohesion.
