Tradition and the extraordinary quality of wine produced by this family bodegamust be reflected in a unique architectural complex. The client becameextremely involved with the architect in developing the proposal. This collaborationforged a firm friendship between Warren Winiarski, his son Stephen andJavier Barba, and the result was a balanced and impressive project amongthe large trees and existing rocks.One objective was to define the finishes of the two areas that can be foundin the underground path: the Round Room, crowned with a large vault andlocated in the intersection of several tunnels and the Great Room, wherespecial guests are received. The bodega also has five entrances or differentdoorways. The project was to present a solution for each of them, but with acommon architectural idea that would link them.The Estudio BC proposal that reflects all these interventions was The Arcade,a porch-series of arches that connects, communicates and enables visitors tobe under shelter throughout the entire route. The design unifies and framesthe two access doors to the bodega, leading to the Great Room, the library andthe area adjacent to the kitchen for events. Behind these rooms a labyrinth oftunnels can be accessed, the junction of which is the Round Room, where aFoucault pendulum recalls the passage of time. The irregular-shaped pavingis made from natural quartzite tiles, the shotcrete walls are mixed with micato create reflections simulating the sky and the lighting was resolved withlights on the ground and with the design of perforated copper cones on thewalls. The doorways were designed with motifs that combine iron or woodwith glass. The completion of this project led to the realization of a secondproject – the visitor center and tasting room – in 2013
