Sports complex in the old city, Ciutadella Park

  • Barcelona

Integration into the building of the old city wall (chronologically this is the third of Barcelona and was part of the military fortifications built under King Philip of Anjou in 1716). The wall is on the site and will be included in the basements of the new building; it will be preserved, restored, and displayed for viewing. The wall plays a vital role in all aspects of the project. The design and construction hinge on it.

Integration of the building into the special existing surroundings, rich in nature as it is part of Ciutadella Park. The building consists of two basketball courts (one indoor and one outdoor), two swimming pools (one in the basement and another on the roof), two stairwells, fitness rooms, bar, and other amenities.

The new landscaping and vegetation surrounding the building are of interest as they include the relocation of numerous palm trees, century-old trees, and a lake belonging to the Barcelona Zoo, all tailored to the Zoo's new requirements for the thirteen cages of the new aviary included in the project. These cages have an unusual irregular design and are strategically located among the palm trees, other trees and shrubs.
