Telefónica Building Calle Gran Vía 28 28013 Madrid The Telefónica Building was designed by Ignacio de Cárdenas, who conceived it after a previous study of Lewis S Weeks in Manhattan Even though the building is of American inspiration, Cárdenas touch can be felt in its churrigueresque exterior ornamentation, a nod to Madrid Baroque architecture Its construction started in 1926 and it was fully completed in March 1929, despite opening its doors officially on 1 January 1930 The workforce was composed of more than 1000 workers and the final cost added up to 32 million pesetas It became one of the first skyscrapers in Europe 3-1929 Nazar http://wwwmimoaeu/users/pablomcapdevila/guides/madrid%20field%20trip%20cultural%20shift%202017/ 14

Mercado Municipal de Barcelo Calle Barceló 6 28004 Madrid The Barceló Market area in Madrid includes public spaces, temporary buildings, and installations belonging to a same complex Its multiple denomination -market/sports center/library- speaks of collective engagement and reveals the social condition of the program: a compact market topped by a sports pavilion framing the city, in front of which a cantilevered library rises above a schoolyard In this way the desinger assumed the coexistence of three simultaneous conceptions (container, frame, bridge) that address structural variations (space frame, cantilever, beam) and generate different civic spaces: a covered street, an elongated plaza, and a raised terrace In this combinatorial matrix a balance of functional needs, structural systems, and urban spaces resides the dense and hybrid condition that characterizes the project 2014 Nieto Sobejano Arquitectos Nazar http://wwwmimoaeu/users/pablomcapdevila/guides/madrid%20field%20trip%20cultural%20shift%202017/ 15
