The Filmax Cinemas in Gran Vía, located within the Gran Vía 2 shopping centre, opened their doors 15 years ago. After this golden age and before the paradigm shift, the client seeks a project to straighten up the cinemas by reducing their dimension, optimising their functioning and offering an experience which goes beyond what happens inside the room.

150 years ago this month saw the birth of one of the most regarded, studied, influential architects of the twentieth century – American architect Frank Lloyd Wright. With a career spanning over seventy years, Wright developed his own distinct style of ‘organic architecture’, a new residential model of ‘prairie house’, as well as iconic schemes such as the Guggenheim in New York, and Fallingwater in Pennsylvania. 

In a recent blog post, the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum explores unrealized design details from Frank Lloyd Wright’s iconic design in New York City, based on blueprints and drawings from the museum’s archives. From large-scale questions of form to material choices, the 16-year period between the commission and the completion of the museum saw many design iterations. Most notable of these are the circulation paths drawn by Wright in the 1953 blueprints that include a steeper circular ramp—in addition to the “Grand Ramp”—that would allow for expedited access to the floors. Though replaced later with a triangular staircase, the “Quick Ramp” demonstrates Wright’s exploration of overlapping geometries.

The brief was for a Pastoral Centre situated within the grounds of St. Patrick’s Church, Donegal Town. For years, church educational programmes, counselling and meetings were held in local schools, the parochial house and hotels throughout the parish. St. Patrick’s Centre was designed to consolidate these spiritual, educational and counselling activities and to meet the social needs of parishioners coming together for celebration and bereavement.
