ARNEDO ARENA

The world of bullfighting speaks about art, about magic, but we discovered that it was quite hermetic and hard to access such as the circle of the arena. A circle can be seen in two ways, as a line that limits a space, or as a surface that landmarks a spot. They told us that we couldn't work with the surface of the "coso" (arena), so we decided to work with the concept of limit. The challenge was to Open that limit without breaking it. To achieve that we scaled the dimension of the circular line with the objective of giving that limit a usage other than just a wall or a frontier. We also fragmented it into pieces to open it making sure that the limit was still there.

Arnedo is a town of 17.000 . It only holds one bullfighting fair per year so we decided to build a hybrid space in which they can hold different kinds of events with the goal of expand busines opportunities through all the year. Inside those fragments of the line we created space for restaurants, a museum, merchandising stores and more... And in its center it transforms, to be able to hold music concerts, sports events and many other.
