La Isleta is a neighborhood with many
unoccupied, undefined and interstitial spaces. The project takes place in one
of these locations, Punta Gorda, at the midpoint of the coastal promenade which
connects the neighborhood of La Isleta with the rest of the city. At the same
time, this location exemplifies a beautiful natural landscape within the urban
context of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria. The area is particularly favorable for
the project function like a joint between the neighborhood with both the
landscape and the city.The proposal for working within this space is based on
three main premises: the use of the section as an element of relationship
between the sea, public space and buildings, the requalification of free public
space, and the generation of new activities that complement the area at
present.
Existing topography of the project area is
divided into two different levels, in which the building alters the volume of
the free space that is defined by the surrounding buildings. The transformation
of the section is finalized by the emergence of a series of shapes on the
ground plane, which are imposed on the free space as towers and other
constructions that are immersed in the ground plane, generating perforations.
This set of voluminous shapes builds a central space that serves as an agora.
Regarding its usage, the building incorporates a multifunctional approach,
hosting a central space that includes all internal activities and relationships
in the building, as well as a library, a restaurant, a nursery space, and a
neighborhood association.
