Ataria nature interpretation centre in Vitoria, Spain

April 08, 2011 Category: Cultural, Public Buildings

The Ataria nature interpretation centre designed by QVE Arquitectos is located in Vitoria, Spain. The project consists of the design of six frames that correspond to six section schemes: allowing it to cantilever. These frames avoid the contact with the ground by the construction of several concrete walls using steel as the contact between the two. Each part of the building is built up by the repetition of frames,so the order is very clear and free allowing the building to grow or contract by adding or clearing a number of frames. One of QVE’s criteria was to have fun ‘Playing with gravity’
