Leisure

The Comedor de Gala, as a grand dining hall that hosts state banquets and official receptions, requires a well-designed support area that complements its functionality. In our new design, we have created a space specifically tailored to cater to the needs of guests attending these events. By creating a functional space that complements the grandeur of the Comedor de Gala, we aim to enhance the overall guest experience and create a cohesive, immersive environment.

Gatehouse Observation

The Escalera Principal is characterised by opulence and convient about circulation, and our new design incorporates a circulation and observation deck area that complements and enhances these qualities. The deck area provides guests with a strategic vantage point to observe the great landscape of Avila. Additionally, the well-designed layout of the circulation area ensures a smooth flow of guests, minimising congestion and providing a seamless transition between spaces.

Culture Theatre

The Saleta de Música, a charming music room, inspired the design of a library space that caters to different reading needs, including public, semi-public, and private areas. The Theater space offers a public theatre area and a weekend roof market, providing a gathering place for local residents to socialise and communicate. By incorporating the intimate and social aspects of the Saleta de Música into these spaces, we aim to create a vibrant and inclusive environment that enhances the community's cultural and social experiences.

Indoor Gallery

Outdoor Exhibition

The Salón de Gasparini is a public space within the Palace for exhibiting architecture itself. The Indoor Gallery and Outdoor Exhibition space design is based on the gate designed in the previous semester, allowing for a seamless transition between indoor and outdoor exhibitions. This approach creates a cohesive and immersive experience for visitors while celebrating the Palace's architectural heritage.
