ETSA Granada. Presentation of “Luminous Atmospheres” at the Higher Technical School of Architecture (ETSA) of Granada.
5 projects by Ferrer Arquitectos.
LIGHT in the Moisés Ruiz Pavilion, the Shelters, Los Almendros, a Health Center, and the PITÁGORAS was the common thread in the presentation of these 5 projects that José Ángel Ferrer carried out at the ETSA in Granada on October 19 and that are collected in the book “Luminous Atmospheres” published by LAMPREAVE.
In addition, Alejandro Muñoz Miranda, Ángel Martínez García-Posada, and Antonio Cayuelas Porras, all professors at the School of Architecture of Granada, participated.
Muñoz Miranda presented the event and gave a brief overview of Ferrer’s work.
García-Posada related how Ferrer’s architecture is rooted in the Almeria landscape, establishing connections with cinematography or sociology.
Cayuelas highlighted the importance of light in Ferrer’s work and how it acquires a special imprint in the projects presented.
Finally, Ferrer spoke about how LIGHT was the leitmotif of the 5 projects presented, generating different luminous atmospheres that position users in a specific emotional state.
He also explained the different ways in which LIGHT is introduced into buildings and the reasons behind these project decisions.
He spoke of different types of light: humid, dry, solid, diffuse, sweet, or vibrant, among others, and how each space requires its LIGHT and, at the same time, how each type of LIGHT gives each space qualities that make it unique.
The Canal Sur Almería building celebrates its 20th anniversary.
A project where we sought a technological and modern image for a new television station in Andalusia.
Among the innovative solutions of the building, we would highlight the creation of a white concrete block for the exterior enclosure with recycled white Macael marble material and a small percentage of Alhama stone, thus initiating a path of sustainability and reuse of materials that we have later maintained in the Studio.
Many thanks to the entire Canal Sur family for the trust they have always placed in us, which was manifested in other projects such as those in Granada and Cádiz, and congratulations on this 20th anniversary.
