Biblioteca de Usera, Madrid, Spain (1995-2003)
1995-2003
Project
The project series documents the competition entry, design, and execution of the José Hierro public library in the Usera district, Madrid, Spain. Abalos & Herreros were invited to participate in the competition organised by Consejería de Educación y Cultura (Council for Education and Culture), of the Comunidad de Autónoma de Madrid, and their entry won. The firm worked in collaboration with architect Ángel S. Jaramillo and artist Peter Halley. The firm identified this project as number 94.
In 2003, this project was a finalist at the 7th edition of the Bienal de Arquitectua Española and received a mention at the 17th edition of the Premios de Urbanismo, Arquitectura y Obra Publica 2003 from the Madrid City Council.
Documenting the project are design development and working drawings, correspondence, notes, project descriptions, studies, specifications, photographic materials and a model.
Materials in this project series were kept in their original order.
