Edificio Pasarela

Project Description

Extending bridges, projecting new relationships in the facility INFECAR. The proposal solves multiple connections at different levels; it connects the immediate surroundings with the interior spaces.
Regulations and location are interpreted in favor of the inside space through the exploration of spatial relations which spread out beyond the established physical boundaries. The two heights required by the regulation are amplified in a triple height space. The project surround spaces of exchange and define discrete spaces, links between streets, plaza, patio, terrace, work spaces and the rest of nearby constructions. It offers a different perspective to each orientation using the same materials, concrete, aluminum and glass, placed in variable thicknesses, habitable, open to visits and measurable. The U shaped walkway is absorbed by the thickness of the skin, the concrete walls spread out to create the tapestry in the plaza in low relief, the boundaries of the area become dissolved in the inside space. Light sifts inside in gradient depending on the projected thickness and the orientation of the programmed panels.
