   Se trata de una lonja en la que se plantea como experiencia pionera en Galicia la posibilidad de recibir visitantes al mismo tiempo que se realiza la actividad de lonja.

Planta Contexto

Separar los recorridos de trabajadores y visitantes se convierte en un objetivo que condiciona la distribución y el programa básico de una lonja convencional, apareciendo funciones añadidas, como la información, exposición de material didáctico o la de control y pequeña tienda.

Básicamente se plantean dos esquemas de funcionamiento muy simples que no se tocan: el de los visitantes, como recorrido longitudinal elevado en torno al espacio de subasta (anillo), con inicio y final en el vestíbulo; y el de lonja, definido por la secuencia lineal y a nivel de suelo de los trabajos, con accesos transversales de carga y descarga (espina).

Plantas

Un gran alero acoge a los visitantes en la vía pública. Es un ensanchamiento del paseo que funciona como plaza cubierta (espacio ext. vestíbulo). Desde ahí se accede a  un vestíbulo acristalado, a doble altura, cuyo suelo se pliega hasta alcanzar un metro sobre el de subasta y define un primer espacio central de observación. A un lado se sitúa el volumen de recepción-tienda y en el otro el de aseos. Desde cada volumen parten los elementos de comunicación vertical que se continúan en dos pasarelas que cruzan el recinto de exposición y

venta del pescado. Sus laterales se protegen con pantallas de vidrio inclinadas, que funcionan como barreras higiénicas y sirven de soporte al material expositivo. Las dos pasarelas se unen en el otro extremo del espacio en una sala de exposiciones. De esta manera se permite un recorrido en anillo en el que se combinan la observación de la actividad de lonja, sin interferirla, y la de documentación e información complementaria.

A continuación, integrados en el mismo volumen, se reubican los diez departamentos de armadores de la lonja antigua y, en el extremo final, la oficina de Portos, controlando la actividad portuaria. La planta baja se retranquea del perímetro para dejar espacios de trabajo a cubierto. De este modo, la presencia del edificio en el muelle se va estrechando hasta desaparecer en un quiebro a partir del cual comienza la rampa de depósito de embarcaciones y amarre.

This project to a fish market, which is considerate like a pioneering experience in Galicia, gives the possibility of receiving visitors at the same time that the market activity is made.

The objective of separate the workers and visitors routes becomes a condition to the distribution and the basic program of a conventional market, appearing added functions, like the information area, didactic material exhibition hall, a control room and a small store.

Basically we propose two very simple operation schemes considering that they’re not touched: the first one, the visitors route, disposed as a longitudinal itinerary elevated around of the auction space (ring), which begins and ends at the lobby; the second one, the market route, defined by the linear sequence at the works ground level, with crossed accesses to load and offloading the merchandise (spine).

A big eaves welcome the visitors in the public thoroughfare being a stroll zone that works like covered seat (exterior space. lobby). From it is acceded there to a glass lobby, with double height, which ground is folded until reaching a meter on the auction zone defining a first central area of observation.

In one side of the entrance we find a reception volume and in the other the toilets. From each volume born a vertical communication, with ramps and stairs that connects the entrance floor with the two footbridges that cross the exhibition hall and the auction space. Their lateral panels are protected with inclined glass plans that work as hygienic barriers and serve as support to the exposition material. The two footbridges are connected in the other extreme of the building in an exhibition hall. In this way we composed a ring route where’s allowed and combined the observation of the market activity, without interfering with it, and the one of documentation and complementary information.

Next, integrated in the same volume, were predisposed the ten departments of the old market and, in the final space, the sea port office which controls the fishing activity. The ground floor, inner of the first floor perimeter, leave work spaces covered.

In this way, the presence of the building in the wharf is narrowed until disappearing when begins the deposit of boats and moors ramp.

This harbour redevelopment project, developed in conjunction with the Port Authority, is primarily focused on zones where public space can be created. The harbour was analysed as a place for interrelations and shelter, with the appeal of its fishing industry and its views; a unique location that makes its presence felt in the town with ramps, stairs and balconies. The linear nature of the horseshoe-shaped harbour is exploited to the utmost with a promenade, accessible at an intermediate level that runs along the cliff, resting on outcrops and wall tops which inhabit it in a sense. The zone for rock climbers, gull’s nests and ensconced rocks appear out of nowhere for strolling visitors.

The intermediate layer, a chameleon camouflage, overlooks the harbour activity without interfering in it. Almost nobody remembers, but the pier deck has been set at the same grade level as the sluice, 6.10, which has improved the visual and spatial integration of the eastern side, while the wastewater duct which used to be in full view along the full length of the waterfront has been buried beneath a metre of backfill. The recovered wall base for house, many of them in stone, facilitates an interpretation of the cliff and its image. The project emphasizes the potential for the improvement of a recurring situation in many Galician fishing village whose size prevents a “new slate” response: the fact that treatment of the few repeated elements, i.e., these organizational patterns, often hidden and with a neglected, intrinsically unattractive presence, can generate a different, perhaps unstructured, cubist type of beauty which is nevertheless a reflection of a direct, popular intentionality.

One of the components of the town’s memory, Murallón lookout, is expanded and separated from vehicular traffic. Buildings on the south descent from the harbour, including a warehouse, a workshop and the Red Cross building, are demolished to release and extend more space in a curve and propose, in continuity from this point, a new promenade to Punta da Plancha set on the stone wall at a constant 4.5 meters above the harbour platform. A Pancha is turned into a lookout and a ramp link to the ground. Along the way, the cliffs are treated with shotcrete and artificial gardens are planted. The workshop, which was initially to be moved to beneath the promenade, has finally been relocated as a unit inside an existing pavilion.

The operation includes stone walls and piers, platforms that are sloping, vertical, horizontal, flat, smooth, touched and attacked by the boats. The creation of new space and uses includes a contemporary element and building method, precast concrete: component-space and surface-line.
Materials: Precast concrete, polished concrete, tile and granite paving, stainless steel and iroko wood
