JVS Posted December 10, 2010 Report Posted December 10, 2010 Ponte de Lima vai ter centro de congressos e parque de campismo A Câmara Municipal de Ponte de Lima acaba de aprovar a realização de um concurso internacional de ideias para a elaboração de dois novos projectos, um centro de congressos e um parque de campismo urbano, integrados no Plano de Valorização das margens do rio Lima e do centro histórico, iniciado há 15 anos. Apesar de o processo estar ainda a dar os primeiros passos, as estimativas da autarquia apontam para um investimento global superior a cinco milhões de euros. No primeiro trimestre de 2011, os projectos deverão estar concluídos e em condições de serem candidatados aos fundos do Quadro de Referência Estratégico Nacional (QREN). O futuro centro de congressos irá nascer junto ao acesso poente ao centro histórico da vila, permitindo requalificar a principal entrada na vila mais antiga do país. De acordo com o presidente da câmara, Vítor Mendes, o equipamento "será adaptado à realidade do concelho, para não se transformar num elefante branco". "Não vamos cair na tentação de fazer uma estrutura megalómana que depois não tenha utilidade." Terá capacidade para acolher espectáculos "de alguma dimensão", exposições, congressos e competições de algumas modalidades desportivas. O parque de campismo urbano será criado na margem direita do rio, numa quinta propriedade do município, próximo do parque temático do Arnado. Vítor Mendes pretende "um espaço diferente, ecológico, com alojamento de qualidade e integrado na paisagem". O objectivo é que os projectos venham a ser complementares, para fazer face à procura dos visitantes que a vila recebe durante todo o ano, em particular no Verão. As novas propostas vêm dar seguimento ao plano de valorização das margens do Lima e do centro histórico, já responsável, entre outras obras, pela intervenção no espaço onde decorre o Festival Internacional de Jardins, no clube náutico, nas ecovias, na cidade equestre e no parque de estacionamento da Guia. in http://www.skyscrapercity.com/showthread.php?t=849584&page=2 Quote
JVS Posted February 17, 2011 Author Report Posted February 17, 2011 GLOBAL PROJECT. Create an urban continuum linking the two projects through the village. Conceptually this public space would be a big foyer that gave access also to existing cultural buildings, in particular the hotel Sra da Guia, Teatro Diogo Bernardes, Villa Morales and former building of tourism / current Gabinete Terra. Establishing a civic and cultural network important in the management of events and buildings. PROJECT I – SALA DE ESPECTÁCULOS. The essay of a new sculptural building that rests in the park, as a piece of art in a garden, lost in time behind a tree that blocked the view. We blazed through the field to this outcome of discovery of what can be now seen when we arrive to Ponte de Lima, light, loose and enigmatic. The terrain is in a lower elevation than the street, allowing it to connect to an outdoor parking area that is across the street. The project area is “filled” with a new topography, a green park, adjacent to the street. The new access is digged, as a hand off the earth and stone, is a print that stays on the ground. It is a path and an amphitheater, as a hand and fingers in the park. The new topography is made hollow and the various programs fill up the underground space. The car park has the dignity of a living room, the foyer is split into two floors, the stage and the rehearsal room rise up from the ground. The rest adds up by functions in the space left over, looking for space in the ground, like a cave. PROJECT II – PARQUE DE CAMPISMO. The main concept is a square that deforms in terraces, creating the platforms where the main buildings and bungalows are placed. There is a movement of defragmenting and reducing the volume of construction to the more wooded park, where the tents are placed on free deployment. The bungalows come metaphorically as large granite blocks stored at the site. Symbolically represent themselves as the pseudo-blocks removed in the excavation of a theater (other project), consolidating the twinning nature of the projects. To the gruff exterior character of prevailing granite opposes the interior in warm wood-, comfortable and intimate. This allows the interior of the bungalows work differently from each other, adjusting the environment to different types of customers. The main buildings are built with cleaner volumes, slightly detached from the pavement, thus symbolically referring also to the main volume of the other project. Together they create a square, which serves as the collective reception and holding events to be associated with the camping park or the village of Ponte de Lima. in http://europaconcorsi.com/projects/157719-Sala-de-espect-culos-e-parque-de-campismo via http://www.skyscrapercity.com/showthread.php?t=1324723 Quote
