Center for High Performance Athletics in Jamor- Lisbon
Lisbon, Portugal
The Center
for High Performance Athletics Jamor, for professional athletes, was planned
taking into account the various forms of athletics sports, and in order to
centralize the training activities with a high standard comfort to the user.
The
functional program includes a speed track, long jump track, high jump track,
pole vault track, shot put and discus throw field, plus a gym for maintenance
and physical preparation, computerized physical monitoring office, social
support and medical support.
The
building is implanted in a 3.690m2 at the base of a slope in terraces which
bear 50 feet high, and that due to its geological origin, forced a rigorous
support and consolidation, which affected not only the accesses to building,
but also the space available for the development of the building.
The formal
and volumetric aspect of the building translates its interior and the specific
conditions imposed by the different modalities, resulting three volumes, one is
a longitudinal volume, with 10 meters high opened to the landscape, another
with variable height that projects the
interior of the racing track and the
last one a “box” that articulates the other two and defines the entrance.
The
materiality results in the dialogue of textures and color contrast with the
diversity of the building, enhancing its opacity and transparency.
The
materials employed were face brick in sight, representing the texture and color
of the pre-existing clay soil, concrete in sight, pointing the structure
materiality, and glass, allowing transparency and permeability to the building,
especially natural light.
Integration
into the sports complex of Jamor results
in a series of interventions that have been developed over the last 6 years,
involving not only the buildings but also equipped urban spaces providing an
environment that reinforces the formal existence of the building.
