Description:
The project series documents an open competition. Abalos & Herreros, in collaboration with Queca Ortiz and Empty, S.L., won second place for their design. The firm identified this project as number 115. The intention of their entry was to “[…] answer to the task with an authentic installation, a mellowed and independent equipment independent of the container, which absolutely never provokes a conflict or pretends to improve it, which accepts the value of its configuration and extracts the maximum possibilities of the spatial qualities that the intervention has pretended to enhance. Therefore, it is pretended to develop a program which adds an offer of pedagogic-cultural piece of the town to the basic spaces of the museum. The challenge is to make people live together with the scientific aspects, which interests the cultivated popular-pedagogy visitor, connoisseurs of, and which acts with the intention of excinting, surprising and attracting attention of a mostly youthful and infantile audience. […] The museum’s basic program is completed with temporary exhibition halls, library, lecture room and didactic workshops, assembly hall, café, gift shop and offices.” (ARCH270975) Documenting this project are digital and reference materials, project descriptions, and specifications.

Description:
The project series documents the design and construction of the general services building for the Universidad de Extremadura. In 1999, Abalos & Herreros in collaboration with Fomento won first prize at a competition held for enterprises. The firm identified this project as number 117. “Giving the hard climatic conditions, the building is wrapped in an artificial and natural dual filter of adjustable lattices surrounded by a ring a trees (Ginkos Bilobas) […] On the roof, two turrets house relaxation rooms for the teaching staff, rooms that open onto a garden surrounded by a training track, thus creating an open-air area with views over the lowlands of the [River] Guadiana and the city” (ARCH270971). In the documentation, the project is often referred to as “Edificio administrativo y de nuevas titulaciones de la Universidad de Extremadura” or “Administration building and new graduate facilities for the University of Extremadura”. The firm worked with Ángel Jaramillo, Uriel Fogué, Renata Sentkiewicz, Jacob Hense and Obiol y Moya for the account of the Consejería de Educación, Ciencia y Tecnología, Junta de Extremadura. Documenting the project are presentation and working drawings, and photographic materials.

Description:
The project series documents the competition entry for the high-speed train station and hub Zaragoza-Delicias. The project was developed by Abalos & Herreros in collaboration with the firms MECSA and ARUP. The project made it to the second round of the competition. The firm identified this project as number 118. Among the essential characteristics of a train station, such as platforms, arrival, departure and waiting areas, the design also includes a large roof that supports two buildings of mixed housing, offices, hotels and space for other uses. Documenting this project are models, conceptual and design development drawings, correspondence, budgets, project descriptions, clippings, contracts, and reference and digital materials.

Description:
The project series documents the commission, design, and construction of the Gordillo studio, neighbouring the client’s house (AP164.S1.1993.D2) on Castilla de Ponferrada Street, in Villanueva de la Cañada, Community of Madrid, Spain. The firm identified this project as number 119. “The Gordillo Studio is a prismatic, serrated volume that occupies the plot’s only available strip of land and minimizes its presence through the use of two materials, translucent polycarbonate and xerophilous plantings, which seek the best adaptation to the site, the program and the client. Using this system, a semi-buried interior is constructed in which the light has been modeled as a solid, expansive material, the aim being to satisfy not only the specific demands of the work space but also the creation of an agreeable atmosphere, as austere as it is sensual.” (ARCH270975) Abalos & Herreros worked with Ángel Jaramillo Sanchez, María Auxiliadora Gálvez, Renata Sentkiewicz, Juan Gómez, Fernando Valero and José Torras. In 2002, the project won the COAM 2000 prize. Documenting this project are conceptual, design development and working drawings, photographic and reference materials, correspondence, notes, budgets, reports, studies, forms, project descriptions, invoices, certifications and trade catalogues.

Description:
The project series documents the competition entry for the mixed-use tower “El Mirador” in the Bay of Algeciras. The firm was invited to submit their design proposal which won second prize. The competition was organised by the Algeciras City Council. The firm identified this project as number 123. “The project attempts to express, with an architectural gesture, the beauty of the geography of Algeciras: the bay, the port, the Rock and the Straits of Gibraltar, the proximity of Ceuta and Africa, the cork-oak forests that surround the town. For this [Abalos & Herreros] propose a building that, from a single body, opens out into two towers from one great public viewing platform. This form has strategic holes giving onto the more notable topographical features, establishing a physical relationship with them, while the section is organized as a gradient of privacy that increases with height. The competition […] proposed a mixed programme in a posture parallel to the great avenue of the harbour of Algeciras. An evanescent building apparently fragile appears to let one being stimulated by the effects of the climate and the atmospheric phenomenons with an appearance changing with the function of the hours of the day or the season. Its layered section attends ascending to the different landscapes of the city: first public space, second the cities skyline and at last the 360° horizon rising above the city.” (ARCH270975) Abalos & Herreros worked with Ángel Jaramillo, Renata Sentkiewicz, Jakob Hense. Documenting this project are conceptual, design development and presentation drawings, cartographic and graphic materials, and competition records.
