The renovation of the Espai Firal de Montjuic for its centenary celebration, in a dense, central urban setting, with exceptional pedestrian and public transport accessibility, will transform Montjuïc into a new paradigm for a contemporary congress and exhibition venue, respectful of its history and sustainable. Palaus Urbans is aproposal that embraces the challenges posed by the competition rules as project opportunities, designing a contemporary building in both typological and technological terms, connecting with the site through its character as an intermediate space, its materiality based on contextual deconstruction fragments, and the preservation of symbolic elements that treasure the historyof a fragment of the city.

‍

The new Palau Multifuncional is configured as an object with two distinct natures: on the one hand, an abstract and radical element which contains the exhibition halls. Around this, a family of shaded, flexible spaces allows the scale to be adapted to the neighborhood. Between the two, certain elements anchor the project to the site and the specific situations of its immediate surroundings.
