Guggenheim Museum Bilbao
Address

http://www.guggenheim-bilbao.es/
.
The Guggenheim Museum Bilbao is one of the most important
ingredients in the plan to redevelop the city of Bilbao. The plan,
involving a number of major projects conceived by some of the
world's most prestigious architects, includes the work now in
progress to increase operational capacity at the city's port, the
revamping of the city's airport, a new Conference and Performing
Arts Center, the construction of a metropolitan railway and a new
footbridge crossing the river at Uribitarte. The unique Museum is
built on a 32,500 square meter site in the center of Bilbao. On
one side it runs down to the waterside of the Nervión River, 16
meters below the level of the rest of the city of Bilbao. One end
is pierced through by the huge Puente de La Salve, one of the
main access routes into the city. The building itself is an
extraordinary combination of interconnecting shapes. Orthogonal
blocks in limestone contrast with curved and bent forms covered
in titanium.

Bilbao Metro Stations
Address
Plaza Circular 2
48008 Bilbao
Spain
http://www.metrobilbao.net
.
The curved glassy structures - or Fosteritos - that announce the
inner-city Line 1 stations at street level are as unique to Bilbao as
the Art Nouveau Metro entrances are to Paris, their shape
evocative of inclined movement and generated by the profile of
the tunnels themselves. The canopies admit natural light by day,
and are illuminated at night, forming welcoming beacons in the
streetscape. On Line 2, where deep-cut stations made it
impossible to use escalators, banks of large-capacity lifts are
grouped in threes to create iconic and easily recognisable
entrance points. [text from architect's website]

Zubizuri bridge
Address
Pasarela Zubi Zuri
Bilbao
Spain
.
The Zubizuri (Basque for "white bridge"), also called the Campo
Volantin Bridge or Puente del Campo Volantin, is a tied arch
footbridge across the Nervion River in Bilbao, linking the Campo
Volantin right bank and Uribitarte left bank of the river. The
design consists of an inclined structural steel arch linking two
platforms, with access ramps and stairways on both banks.

Sondika Airport
Address
Errementeri Kalea
E- 48180 Bilbao
Spain
http://www.airport-technology.com/projects/bilbao/
.
The steel and concrete structure, nicknamed La Paloma (the
Dove) because of its resemblance to a giant bird about to take
flight, is integrated into the hilly green landscape in the
Txoriherri Valley in close proximity to Bilbao. The aluminium skin
of the Central Terminal sweeps across the 140 meter long
terminal entry, providing cover for multiple levels of arrival and
departure. The layout was designed to limit the impact of
auxiliary buildings on the vista of the main building. An elegant
four-storey parking structure, with a skylit walkway leading to
the Terminal Building, is tucked into a grassy embankment.

Offices Osakidetza
Address
Calle Licenciado Poza
Bilbao
Spain
.
The river of Bilbao is not the only area where urban renewal is
taking place. In the center of the old town, the Basque
Government has commissioned the young Basque architect Juan
Coll-Barreu to design a 'vital' building, dominantly present on the
corner of Calle Licenciado Poza with La Alameda de Rekalde. The
works of this architect are characterized by their adaptive
nature, like a glove fits to a hand. All conditions and
circumstances are taken into account: first the urban context,
the client's wishes, the functions of the building, the climate, and
finally the project itself. After winning the design competition,
this was the first project for him in a complex urban situation: 'In
this design process, everything was a challenge'. The building is
bold and transparent, to express the healty image of Bilbao, and
the vital works of its occupants: the Department of Public
Health. A double glazed facade functions as a warm blanket in
the winter, and a natural membrane in summer.

Housing at Ortutxueta
Address
Calle Ortutxueta 2
48006 Bilbao
Spain
.
This proposal, winner of the competition Europan IV, involves the
recovery of the lands of a disused mine next to a very densely
populated working class neighbourhood. It is part of a zoning
operation of the authors who then afterwards break up into
different tasks, according to the division of the plot. This
intervention is very directly connected to the project of the
adjacent plot, which is the one that can hold the highest
population density. The project is adapted to the slope and
creates a block with no access to traffic. On this block, the
buildings wind over a well-cared collective space. It tries a type
of row house which also takes advantage of the difference in
elevation to regulate the heights and places emphasis on the
decks which, in this case, become a fifth spectacular façade. The
scarce variety of types of homes is the least notable aspect.

University Library Deusto
Address
Avda. de las Universidades 24
48007 Bilbao
Spain
http://www.biblioteca.deusto.es/
.
The new Library of the University of Deusto is open to students,
researchers, institutions and companies worldwide. It seeks to
pursue pedagogical innovation, while at the same time offering a
dynamic and flexible architectural environment, in accordance
with the new European Space for Higher Education. In this
regard, the open access facilities have been conceived as a space
where users may find the best conditions for learning and
research. The development of the library must be seen in context
of the wide range of actions carried out by Bilbao Town Council in
the last few years, which seeks to consolidate Bilbao as a city of
knowledge. The deep changes that this city has undergone have
facilitated, among other things, the expansion of university
campuses in the city centre, as in the case of the new library.
The building is divided into five floors above ground and another
five underground, all equipped with modern electronic resources.

Regional Library of Bizkaia
Address
Diputación 7
48008 Bilbao
Spain
http://www.bizkaia.net/Home2/Temas/DetalleTema.asp?Tem
_Codigo=294
.
The origins of the Regional Library of Bizkaia can be found in the
personal library of Fidel de Sagarminaga, a politician, writer and
owner of an outstanding library of nearly 12,000 titles, on Basque
themes. The Library, bursting at the seams due to lack of space,
and outdated in its services, underwent a new overhaul,
extension and conversion of the physical space in the 1980's;
however, the continuous growth of the rich bibliographical and
newspaper collections once again pushed the facility to the limit
of its capacity. As a consequence, an ambitious project for the
extension and upgrading of the building was undertaken under
the direction of IMB architects (Gloria Iriarte, Eduardo Múgica and
Agustín de la Brena). The result was a Library adapted to the
cultural reality of Bizkaia, providing new services to meet the
challenges posed by the society of the 21st century. Opened after
four years of construction, while at the same time, the building
was never closed from the public.

Palacio Euskalduna
Address
Avda. Abandoibarra 4
48011 Bilbao
Spain
http://www.euskalduna.net/
.
Designed by architects Federico Soriano and Dolores Palacios as a
vessel permanently under construction that stands in a dock on
the site of the former Euskalduna Shipyard, the Conference
Centre received the 2001 Enric Miralles award at the 6th Biennial
of Spanish Architecture. It is a 53,000 m2 multi-purpose centre
that stands in the heart of the city of Bilbao designed to host
many different kinds of corporate, financial, institutional, social
and cultural events. It is also the venue of the ABAO opera
season, a major event in Spain and Europe and home to the
Bilbao Symphony Orchestra, a magnificent ensemble whose first
concert dates back to 1922. The building offers a perfect
co-ordination of areas open to the public such as its Auditorium,
numerous halls, meeting and board rooms, offices, foyers,
exhibition lobbies and services areas featuring warehouses,
workshops, changing rooms, dressing rooms, rehearsal rooms,
etc.

La Peña Multi-Sport Pavillion
Address
Calle Lekanda 2
48003 Bilbao
Spain
.
The lot for this project is a reduced and irregular piece of
terrain, almost residual, that opens a way between the rear and
unaligned façades of neighbouring housing and the almost
vertical wall of a natural hillside. A new commuter train station
and the metallic structure of the existent pediment determine
the boundaries of the lot and generate different slopes. The
sports complex is a uneven volume that complies with multiple
conditions that coexist in the lot. A semi-transparent fencing of
black concrete and glass tries to respond to the different
situations generated between the transforming residential city
and natural hillside profoundly affected by industrialization (text
from website architects).

Bilbao Research and Administration
Building
Address
Ibaizabal Bidea
48170 Bilbao
Spain
.
This complex on the outskirts of Bilbao houses 40000 m2 of work
area and almost 1000 m2 of parking spaces in a gently sloping
green field site. The new building tries to retain the atmosphere
of the landscape comprising two rolling hills against a background
of low mountains. The volume is divided into three elongated
prisms, two glazed and the other one made out of granite and
concrete. These were placed upon the different levels of the hill.
A fourth cubic block, also glazed, forms a square with the stone
one that opens up onto de widest valley. The glass façades draw
in the humid and misty landscape typical of the region. It was
intended that the complex retained a recognizable scale despite
its size, and that each working space should posess an
understandable relationship with the rest of the building and the
surroundings (text from website architects).

Bilbao Sports Centre New Façade
Address
Alameda Recalde 28
48009 Bilbao
Spain
.
The oldest and elitist Sports Club of Bilbao decided to implement
a new façade to change its appearance and image in the city. The
design was chosen by the architects and members of the club
after a competition between some selected young architects in
the city was held. The façade has been conceived as a folly of
some slides of glass, with a gentle gesture of tilting each floor.
