dedicated mainly to the life and works of the painter Antoni
Tàpies. The Foundation was created in 1984 by the artist Antoni
Tàpies to promote the study and knowledge of modern and
contemporary art. It combines the organisation of temporary
exhibitions, symposia, lectures and film seasons with a range of
publications to go with the activities and periodic shows of
Antoni Tàpies’ work. The Foundation owns one of the most
complete collections of Tàpies’ work, mostly made up of
donations by Antoni and Teresa Tàpies. [source: wikipedia]

.
Wonderful Mercat Santa Caterina strikes a magical balance
between local producers and consumers, contemporary
architecture and tourism. The redevelopment retains its original
use as a retail food market. A huge, undulating canopy covers an
existing, former rundown neo-classical market in a large square
within sight of the gothic cathedral. The canopy consists of a
mosaic of 325,000 vividly multicolored hexagonal Spanish tiles set
in mortar, "whose various colors recall a sill life of produce." It is
a view that will be particularly appreciated by the residents of
the neighboring apartment blocks. The roof is supported on three
primary clear-span trusses that cut through, up and over the
roof. But, from below, it reads as an organic timber assembly. At
the opposite end from the retained arcade, an irregular
latticework of timber slats brings to mind an Indonesian village
hall - a typically offbeat Miralles invention and a reminder that he
worked on this design before his death in 2000.

The Centre for Contemporary Culture in Barcelona is a dedicated
to “cities and the phenomena they generate; because they have
become the social, urbanistic and cultural catalyst of our times”
and organizes exhibitions, music, dance, courses, debates,
lectures, city walks. It is The CCCB is in the old but renovated
Casa de la Caritat, located in the Raval district. The architects:
"By changing just one of the sides of the courtyard and using the
basement to improve communication and access, we have a very
negotiable layout." The sheer glass wall off the courtyard comes
as something of a rude shock. The left-hand side of the wall is of
dark glass; the right-hand side, very slightly offset, is light. The
wall cants out over the courtyard at an angle of 60 degrees. It’s
part of an impressive cultural belt, near the Ramblas, which runs
from the University of Barcelona, past the Biblioteca de
Catalunya and the Gran Teatre del Liceu, to the Pompeu Fabra
University and next to Meier's MACBA.

Hotel Room Mate Pau
Address
Carrer Fontanella 7
08010 Barcelona
Spain
http://pau.room-matehotels.com/
.
10 years after the opening of Barcelona’s Hotel Amrey Sant Pau,
the Spanish-based hospitality group opened it’s second
establishment, Room Mate Pau. The hotel, designed by renowned
architect and interior designer Teresa Sapey, is decked out with
vibrant color pallets, charismatic graphics, and cosmopolitan
decor. Sapey’s reputation of using bright colors and bold objects
in her designs is what made her a perfect choice for the lively
Room Mate Pau Hotel. She was called upon by the owners to
create a hotel that is both friendly and stylish. The building,
which has just undergone a full restoration, now has an atrium
full of piercing eye balls, and an elevator shaft outfitted with a
huge mural of a ambiguous person wearing a houndstooth
patterned dress coat. Spacey transformed large wall patterns into
cool backdrops to unique and minimalistic furniture pieces that
create a one of a kind experience for hotel guests. [text:

t the farthest point from the sea, next to Carrer Taulat solves the
access road to the site through a valley that is building an
artificial mountain and a plateau. The mountains protect the
entire coastline round noise within lodging in technical systems

city simultaneously. The plateau contains the recycling
wrapping the old incinerator and connecting the whole building
with a single blue polycarbonate polarizing emerging all eyes,
materializing a first plane that filters more aggressive industrial
views from the park. This is a unique proposal, an Energy
Observatory through its joint program - industrial, tertiary and
cultural - can build bridges between cultural contexts and
landscape, nature and artifice, making comprehensive energy
management and the surrounding territory : a privileged, the
most outspoken of the garden from the city to look at itself.

The southeast coastal park and auditoria project was part of the
infrastructure that the city of Barcelona had planned as the Host
City for the International Forum of Cultures, held in 2004. The
organisational prototype that the architect proposed for the park
was borrowed from a frequent model in coastal areas; sand
dunes. They are a form, a material organisation with little
internal structure, merely sand, shaped by wind. The park
provides open air auditoria and spaces for events and activities,
wind protection and suitable habitats for vegetation. The park
allows and encourages sports and leisure activities, from walking
to running, biking, skateboarding and a series of performance and
relaxing areas by a network of paths or activity zones. Views are
deliberately controlled by the demarcation of these zones;
narrow, focused views broaden to wide open views.

Forum Building

Avinguda Diagonal 1

http://www.barcelona2004.org/
.
The Forum Building is a triangular measuring 180 meters on each
side and 25 meters in height, located within the triangle formed
by the surrounding streets. It is considered by some to be an icon
of the "New Barcelona ". However, local opinion on its aesthetic
and functional merits is deeply divided. It was the symbol of the
controversial 2004 Universal Forum of Cultures and the serious
flaws that arose during its construction were widely covered in
both the Spanish national and foreign press. It has lain empty
since the Forum and is beginning to show marked deterioration.
The building is structured around an auditorium with a capacity
to hold 3,200 people. The seating is below the Forum Plaza level.
The upper part is suspended from the triangular superstructure
measuring 180 meters per side that covers the plaza, and rests on
17 pillars. From it, the exhibit hall and the roof of the auditorium
are suspended. The exhibition hall covers nearly 5,000 m2.

This multi-purpose cultural building includes a very large
auditorium, a multi-functional performing space, exhibition
spaces, meeting rooms, and a restaurant and foyer, in addition to
technical services, loading docks, storage spaces, and car parking
on two levels. It was part of the controversial 2004 Universal
Forum of Cultures in Barcelona and has 45 translucent halls,
spread over 3 floors, 2 mezzanines and a basement. The CCIB and
the neighboring building Forum Auditorium (by Swiss architects
Herzog and De Meuron), are linked to each other by a
20-meter-wide underground walkway. Mateo 'explains': “I have
gone back to loving the precision of iron: normal, but monstrous,
banal but not domestic, superhuman. The mega structure is seen
proudly in the East façade, opposite the elegant neighbouring
triangle. The bones are covered in the rest of the building.”

Diagonal Mar Park
Address
Av. Diagonal y Cinturón Ronda Litoral
Barcelona
Spain
http://www.diagonalmar.com
.
It's design favours an interaction with the city. It is organised by
following a series of paths, which similar to the branches of a
tree, spread out in all directions. A type of Rambla, a main
thoroughfare, connects La Diagonal directly to the nearby beach
crossing the Litoral ring by means of a pedestrian bridge... and
it transforms itself into a series of recreational tracks: to stroll,
for skating, cycling, walking etc. A large area of water in which
there are various fountains, the flow of water and the vegetation
on its edges oxygenates the water. The presence of the water
characterises the vegetation of the zone and the vegetation
spreads following the direction of the shores near the sea and the
lake. It is growing taller and denser until it reaches the
adjacent streets. Small places are to be found on the edges of the
park. Places where a series of large ceramic vases join with the
existing vegetation, similar to the garden of a house. " Miralles Tagliabue".

ME Barcelona Hotel
Address
Carrer Pere IV 272 286
08005 Barcelona
Spain
http://www.me-barcelona.com/
.
Initially known as Hotel Habitat Sky, the building was sold in 2008
to Melia Hotels. Hence, its name was changed to Hotel ME
Barcelona. The hotel is thought of as a play of volumes. A cubic
building acts as a counterpoint behind the tower, which is a
rectangular parallelepiped cut lengthwise in two, with one of
them half-shifted skywards. This rupture of the perfect geometric
block creates a movement of form and volume that bestows an
urban sense on the insertion of the tower in the horizontal city.
The shifted half-volume creates the building's reference signs:
down, the cantilever at 25 metres height that acts as a gateway;
up, the crest in the skyline. The hotel's skin is made of
micro-perforated aluminium behind a glass curtain wall, which
gives the building the image of a bright metal needle.

The Media-TIC building is located in the 22@Barcelona district, at
the intersection of Carrer de Roc Boronat and Carrer de Sancho

to be a communications hub and meeting point for businesses and
institutions in the world of information and communication
technologies (ICTs), as well as for the media and audio-visual
sectors. With this project, Barcelona is transforming an industrial
district which was the city's main economic motor for over a
hundred years. In its place, it is creating a new model of
intellectual space that will promote collaboration and synergies
between the University, Technology and Business, with the aim
of encouraging the development of an innovative culture and
fresh talent.

The most striking feature of the 20-storey glass tower is the
variety and originality of its volume, which lends a completely
different appearance when observing it from the city, the sea or
from the coastal ring-road. It has spectacular horizontal jut,
which as a result of both its location and its architectural
singularity have made it a landmark on Barcelona's skyline. With
the arrival of the company in Barceloneta, this district now has a
new public square called Plaza del Gas at the gas company
request, located on the site where the first gasworks in the
history of Spain were located 160 years ago. The façade is clad in
18,000 m2 solar clear control glass, supplemented by a
low-emissive top layer, all provided by Glaverbel. This makes a
highly energy efficient façade combining excellent insulation (U

"When I was a student at the Barcelona School of Architecture
(ETSAB), Barceloneta was the subject of much conversation.
Restaurants on the beach which later disappeared... narrow
streets, cramped flats, the clothes hanging out on the balconies,
the shops, the artisans' workshops... and its people, who talked,
and still talk, fast and loud. The project meant a chance to go
back to the neighbourhood in an interested manner; it was no
longer a trip down there for fun, to discover its people, its bars,
its smell... but rather a survey of the place with the object of
identifying what would enable us to reveal its qualities and to
describe it accurately for the purposes of a project. An
attempt, ultimately, to explain a reality, to offer a new and
fuller meaning to an architectural project, beyond resolving a
programme or commission." Text by the architect.

W Barcelona Hotel, located on the new entrance of Barcelona’s
Port appears as a modern icon rising above the Mediterranean
sea, and is the landmark of this new area to be developed with
high-end retail, office and entertainment venues. A sail shaped
building on a 10 hectares land claimed from the sea, is included
in an ambitious urban renovation plan of Barcelona coastline. W
Barcelona Hotel is a five star-hotel with 480 rooms, 67 suites, a
roof top bar, large spa, indoor and outdoor pool, several food and
beverage concepts and a retail store. The closest volume to the
sea is a thin building 105 meters high perpendicular to the dike (1
underground level, 1 ground floor level and 26 storey). The
reflecting façade of silver glass blends with the colours of the sky
and the sparkles of the sea.
