Cinemateque, Girona

The site for this project is located in the old town of the city of Girona. This neighborhood, developed with no plan and formed by very old buildings creates empty areas with very singular surroundings. In this case, the combination of end façades or construction side and the slopes of the streets surrounding.

The project is formed around a sunken plaza, which gives the capacity to response to any possibility; and the situation of the buildings contains the slopes so pedestrians might cross the area without being affected by them. The project takes to opportunity to create city, more than creating a singular element. The location of every element is planned to give a proper response and city end of all the site problems.

The obvious improvement of the area is completed with a program highly related to the city and to the site itself, a cinema centered complex located near the first and oldest cinema in the city and the working town theater.
