Description of the project by SCOB
THE PROJECT
The Marina of Port Vell in Barcelona expands its facilities to service a growing demand for visiting vessels. The project includes the construction of two buildings on the water, one service and a club for users, and landscape management of the 16,000 sqm spring.
The large area occupied by docks and floating platforms remains free for reasons of space and public use. This area is used for transit and parking of vehicles, access to pedestrians, and maneuvering of ships. The project considers these areas, difficult and functional, as an opportunity to give character and personality to the new marina, providing order and coherence, rules or often reserved for the public space.
The project also includes the design of the series of street furniture ODOS, designed by SCOB and produced by Escofet, who also won the FX 2015 Award in the category of "Public Furniture, Leisure or Office" and also present in the project the Marina Port Vell in Barcelona.
BUILDING ENTRANCE (OneOcean Club)
The building houses the private club for users of the marina, the OneOcean Club, which features a restaurant and cocktail bar area BlueWave, which are organized into two structures together on a lattice.
It is located on the lower level, from where the cover is visible. The cover is designed as a fifth facade, from which the lattice, which generates different spaces and terraces unfolds. The only enclosed areas of the building are the kitchen facilities and storage areas. The other areas are open to the sea and the city.
