castillo/miras arquitectos: restoration of a tower in huercal-overa
چهارشنبه, ۸ تیر ۱۳۹۰، ۱۲:۰۰ ق.ظ
سادگی و ترکیب ناهم‌گون حجم ها اول آدم رو یاد دروس ترکیب دانشگاهی می ندازه، ولی وقتی نماهای مختلف‌ش رو می بینی و ساخت خوب و پرداخت به اندازه رو سیر می کنی، می‌بینی که با ساخت خوب، حتی از ترکیب هم می شه معماری درآورد! :)
البته نامردی نکنم ! طرح هم همچین بد نیست!
خیلی خوب در نقش یه نشانه حضور داره.
'restoration of a tower' by castillo/miras arquitectos in huercal-overa, spain
images © fernando aldaspanish based practice castillo/miras arquitectos has recently restored an observation tower in huercal-overa, spain.
the structure was returned to its former glory with a modern addition to provide improved accessibility through the
rugged terrain for visitors. simple antiquated materials are contrasted by the monolithic design of the adjacent stair shaft. accentuating the permanence of the historic form, the transient information center and vertical accessibility element constructed of cor-ten steel appear to delicately rest upon the ground.
a winding pedestrian path leads visitors to the tower through the steep terrain
a winding rustic stone path leads visitors up the sides of the existing plateau towards the contemporary structure
adjacent to the tower. concealed within the minimalist cylindrical form, visitors climb a spiral staircase with intermittent panoramic views of the surrounding countryside. upon reaching the highest point, visitors are directed towards a pedestrian bridge leading to the towers entry door. beyond the door lies the interior space consisting of vigilantly restored brick vaults and wood floors.
