سرامیک‌های مرواریدی  رنگارنگ نمای این سالن موسیقی روستایی در اسپانیا، چقدر خوب تونسته یک نمای پویا و سحرانگیز بسازه به طوری که مکعب مستطیل بودن و ساده بودن حجم بنا اصلا خسته کننده نیست...
عمده توجه من در این پست به همین نمای کار بود. در مورد بخش های دیگه حرفی ندارم

spanish practice cor & asociados has recently completed 'music hall and house in algueña', a venue for the musical
and cultural activities of the small village of algueña in the alicante county of spain. an extensive schedule of activities
will occur at the site and called for a large usable area with a limited budget. retired since the 1980s, an original
building intended for the guardia civil's quarter has been rehabilitated with the implementation of a park and
open-air auditorium to complete the complex. positioned to the west of the village, the green buffer between the entities
contains a garden with jacarandas producing a gathering space for inhabitants within the urban fabric.

the existing U-shaped structure is squared with an additional volume generating an open air internal courtyard for
rehearsals and events. visitors may circulate through the central plaza to access the new multipurpose hall capable
of accommodating 230 seats as needed. the space may host diverse functions including concerts and holiday festivals
with storage facilities. devoid of windows, the rectangular form is clad with pearly iridescent ceramic panels which
change in color and illumination in varied lighting and cloud conditions, creating a subtly dynamic element in the landscape.
the low-profile and simple proportions evoke a similar character to the area's industrial remnants while the retention of the
adjacent landmark strengthens the community's roots. artists were chosen to paint colorful murals into the historical
door jambs and lintels adding a dynamic accent to the blanched exterior.
