After the previous presentation (http://raichdelrio.blogspot.com/2009/01/conference-hall-at-ave-maria-barcelona.html), we got asked to rethink the project so it could be both a conference hall and a meeting room.

We kept the main ideas: the orientation, the fact of having an "office" space at the entrance, the wall that unified the space... but incorporing the new input: we made a system of telescopic steps than places them in a closet, and made the office a little bit smaller to place the chairs and tables when not being used.

The meeting room holds 30 people with tables and chairs and the conference hall holds 100 people seated.

The telescopic steps were the only option to give visibility to the people sitting in the back and at the sime time allowing the room to convert in a meeting room.

The room as a conference hall

The room as meeting room.

As we said, the main ideas are still there: a continuous wood skin embracing the space, the orientation, the office space...

But the telescopic steps offer the possibility of transforing the space into several possibilities.



Sections showing the different spatial configurations.

The storage space made us think in more detail the office space.

Whereas the chairs were standard chairs, we thought about a table that could be stored easily and despite it could still be a representation table.

Carretera Secundaria exhibition

Or how architecture can meet other disciplines

More information at

This was an exhibition about how architecture students deal with other disciplines while studying achitecture. It was done in the ETSAB (the architecture school in barcelona) with ETSAB students.





It was an open registration and people from very different disciplines came to us (including lighting and scenography but also cooking or sewing)





So the question was: how to give to all these different contents a common frame? how to organize them all?
It fastly came the idea of the "secondary road", a road which is not the main road (that would be working in an architecture office as an intern) and that, of course, can be much more slow but can also make you look at the landscape (your enviroment) in a different way.





The first big thing was there: making a road crossing all the hall, and placing the works outside from it, hanging from the ceilling. Al the posters had in one side the work printed and in the other side pictores of "secondary roads".







At the end, it happened that people walked through the road...





The path was done in standard moquete, and we self-printed the lines with a stencil.


Early sketch - concept.
