Centro Cultural Metropolitano de Arte Joven

Idea projektu

The project is inserted inside a property where cultural heritage buildings coexist, two large blocks with a central courtyard (Railway Museum and Civil Registry) and two split houses, the one belonging to the railway manager and another withdrawn on the corner, from which It was decided to intervene and reactivate as an active gastronomic space. Likewise, there are buildings of interest such as the bus terminal or the Casannello tower in the north eighth for residence. The link between buildings from different periods and identities was sought, thus closing the whole of the heritage block.

Popis projektu

Located in order to unite each of these structures and define new external spaces. All existing buildings are connected vertically and horizontally throughout the complex. Inside, public functions are protected, such as the lobby and the auditorium, which function not only as circulation and meeting spaces, but also as part of a new identity for the institution. The volume of the new building respects the existing heritage heights, it is positioned inside the block, redefining the external spaces, freeing up most of the space on the ground floor for public use, thus consolidating a much-needed urban plinth for the constant flows of mobility.

Technické informace

The construction of the building is made of concrete structure for the public civic-patrimonial heigh, and then a private tower in steel frame for administrative and production uses.

Centro Cultural Metropolitano de Arte Joven

The "Centro Cultural Metropolitano de Arte Joven" by Julián Acosta Belucci is an ambitious proposal that seeks to revitalize a heritage block in Santa Fe, Argentina, by uniting existing historical structures—such as the Railway Museum and Civil Registry—through a cohesive architectural intervention. The project introduces new circulation paths and public spaces, aiming to create a dynamic cultural hub that bridges past and present. While the concept of integrating diverse architectural periods is commendable, the project would benefit from further development in detailing and material articulation to enhance its feasibility and user experience. Clarifying the spatial relationships between the new and existing structures, as well as addressing the technical aspects of construction, would strengthen the proposal's overall impact. With additional refinement, this project has the potential to serve as a model for context-sensitive cultural redevelopment.
