LA SPEZIA - Liguria – ITALY

Un progetto per lo stadio "Alberto Picco" della Spezia – ITALY

Description
La mia personale idea (o sogno?) per il nuovo stadio "Alberto Picco" della Spezia, home of the Spezia Calcio. Lo stadio sorge sopra una grande struttura in cemento armato che racchiude il nuovo sottopasso di via Fieschi e un grande parcheggio sotterraneo. Il grande piazzale all'interno del quale sorge la struttura risponde alle nuove normative e permette un rapido deflusso degli spettatori. Le tribune, strutturate su due anelli rettangolari capaci di una capienza di circa 18.000 spettatori seduti, richiamano la tipica geometria degli stadi "all'inglese" con estrema vicinanza al campo da gioco. Sei strutture sospese alla copertura di alluminio contengono l'impianto per l'illuminazione e quello di audio diffusione; un grande schermo è posto sopra la curva "piscina". sopra l'imbocco sud del sottopasso è posta una fontana con aiuola. il sogno finisce con lo spezia ancora in serie B... FORZA AQUILE!!!.

Granada, Spain

Casa de "El Americano"

Description
Conjunto residencial de tres inmuebles de renta de similar diseño arquitectónico, que dan apariencia de ser una única edificación. Ocupa la última manzana definida en el proyecto de apertura de la Gran Vía, cuya forma triangular dispone alzados a Tinajilla, la propia Gran Via y Profesor Emilio Orozco. El conjunto fue proyectado en 1912 por Francisco Prieto Moreno y consta de planta baja, entreplanta y cuatro superiores, con tratamiento achaflanado de las esquinas, salvo en la confluencia de Gran Vía con Tinajilla, que adopta la forma de pabellón angular. Es uno de los bellos ejemplos de la arquitectura modernista en Granada.

Madrid, Spain

Museo Thyssen Bornemisza

Description
The Museo Thyssen-Bornemisza is an art gallery in Madrid. It is known as a part of the "Golden Triangle of Art", which also includes the Prado and the Reina Sofia galleries. The Thyssen-Bornemisza fills the historical gaps in its counterparts' collections: in the Prado's case this includes fine examples of Italian primitives and works from the English, Dutch and German schools, while in the case of the Reina Sofia the Thyssen-Bornemisza collection includes impressionists, expressionists, and European and American paintings from the second half of the 20th century. The collection started in 1920 as a private collection by the late Baron Hans Heinrich Thyssen-Bornemisza (1921–2002). He assembled most of the works from his relatives' collections and proceeded to acquire large numbers of new works to produce what is one of the world's finest private art collections. In 1985, the Baron married Carmen Cervera and introduced her to art collecting. Carmen's influence was decisive in persuading the Baron to decide on the future of his collection and cede the collection to Spain. The museum was opened in 1992 after an agreement was reached between the Baron and the Spanish government. A year later the collection was bought outright. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
