Project
AP178.S1.2000.PR01
Description:
This project series documents the Complexo Desportivo "Ribera - Serrallo" in Cornellà de Llobregat near Barcelona, Spain. While the records were held in the office’s archives this project was assigned the number 3/00. The office assigned the date 2000 for this project. The sports complex consisted of a multipurpose pavilion, an aquatic centre and gymnasiums. The building also included a foyer, restaurant, terrace, and a VIP area. Of particular interest was the small opening in the building that linked the exterior and interior pool, as well as the 62 circular pool skylights. The project was built and Siza was awarded the Secil prize in 2006 for this building. In 2010, a new customer request called for the creation of a game room and toy library. This is documented in the project series through a study model (see model ARCH281281). Documenting this project are sketches, studies, plans, working drawings, technical drawings and details. Textual materials include correspondence and project documentation. Photographic materials document construction work and the built project.

Project
AP164.S1.2002.D16
Description:
The project series documents the competition entry for the development of the International fair of the South, in the municipality of Getafe, Spain. The firm identified this project as number 159a. “The project puts the emphasis on two esencial [sic] questions: on the one hand a system which allows to resolve the fair’s pavillons simple and elegantly joining criteria of light, structure and water in a system of constructive rationality and average economy. On the other han[d a]n organization of the public and constructed space in phases which allow to understand the technology area of the south as something complete and shaped since the first of them has been developed. The proposed exhibition pavillions [sic] come from a technical reasoning based in the balance of structural width, central light and drainage of the roof, a result of several projects of similar scale which the office has developed in the last years.” (ARCH270975) Abalos & Herreros initially grouped this project with the competition Fira 2000 - Barcelona (AP164.S1.2002.D14). Documenting the project are presentation drawings, project descriptions, correspondence, studies, competition documents and specifications.
