ARENABSB
BRASILIA - BRAZIL
Having an urbanistic and architectural proposal particularized, which has the union of geometric and organic shapes, buildings were developed that have a complementary character as the others and have a unique identity.
ArenaBSB brings a new concept to Brasilia, a multi-functional urban complex. Such an undertaking was addressed to a single project, which includes diversified areas of gastronomic, labor, sports, and leisure activities for all age groups, bringing technology and modernity to the city.
At the main access of ArenaBSB, a Central Terminal will be installed for a Light Rail Vehicle which will make the single route, round trip, starting at the bus station and heading to the complex, without intermediate stops. In addition, the central terminal has points reserved for the stop of taxis and vehicles for locomotion applications such as uber and the other existing ones. Likewise, the space will include souvenir shops, small eating areas, sanitary facilities, for public use, and ATMs 24 hours a day. Upon arriving at the central terminal, the visitor will be exposed to a monolith of light, surrounded by dancing waters, which will reflect programmed lights, paying homage to the Brazilian Flag or any event with representative colors.
With the intention of following the typology of the area corresponding to the Boulevard, two arches of cycle paths were created with pedestrian circuits. Which will cover the wide range of parking lots, aiming at integration with the Boulevard as a whole. Along the route, bike racks will be installed along with public restrooms, giving cyclists and visitors the possibility to take advantage of the activities offered at ArenaBSB.
The light rail will cover the entire urban area of the complex, facilitating the movement of people to all existential areas. Not only, it will have 4 points of embarkation and disembarkation in strategic points, in order not to interfere in the architectural distribution of the buildings, but it will also transit on elevated tracks.
With a functional and interactive architecture, the movie theater has a waterproofed roof, which will allow the realization of possible outdoor events.
Aiming at an organic projection, the aquarium will have an aesthetic relationship, which will remind the aquatic animal a stingray. In addition, the exhibition area for visits will be inside the building, ensuring adequate air conditioning for the aquatic animals on display. Its construction will be carried out in two stages. Such steps will be, firstly, the construction of the front part of the “body”, then, in its expansion phase, its posterior complement will be added, interpreted as the “tail”, forming a final element.
For maximum use of interactive areas, a building with two floors was designed, including cross-shaped walkways accompanied by an organic roof, establishing a connection between the neighboring buildings. This set will have 120 stores with 5x10 (50m2), with the possibility of removing internal walls, in order to expand areas of future businesses.
Contrary to the isolated idea of work, a semi-open concept, with exposure to nature, was developed in the areas of co-working. The intentional act of extending the building over the passage of the bike path and pedestrian circuit, allows employees to adopt a more active lifestyle. To influence this behavior, changing rooms and showers will be installed in suitable areas of the work environment. With a placeholder for events.
