    Mirador Building MVRDV

    Mirador Building MVRDV The Mirador building, by MVRDV and Blanca Lleo, is a housing unit located in location: the rapidly developing and industrialized suburb of Hortaleza, near Madrid. Madrid, Spain There exists a large difference in context between the agglomerated urban environment of the highline, and the Mirador, placed remotely in the middle of date completed: other residential units, surrounded by highways. 2001-2005 There are however, key parallels to be made between the two sites. First, the highline, in its elevation from the ground, establishes itself as a point of visual primary program: interest. The idea of gaze on the street is further developed as one stands on residential the highline, where a series of views of the city are deliberately framed. Similarly, the Mirador building aims to create a contrast in relation to its sur- secondary program: roundings. The design decision was to negate the horizontal, flat development sky plaza of adjacent buildings, and rotate the Mirador to a considerable height of 60m above the ground. The architects took the typology of surrounding buildings, primary structure: which all have large inner courtyards, and expressed these elements vertically steel truss roof system within the Mirador. The result is an elevated platform, 14 stories above ground. As the name suggests, the building is designed in relation to the surrounding landscape and opportunities for observing it. The elevated platform becomes a total floor area: key point in this respect. 18300 m2 at 22 floors Both the Mirador and the highline provide alternate levels and manners of cir- maximum building height: culation, trying to reinvent the opportunities available for community gather- 40 m ing.The Mirador makes a bold statement in its exposed, red circulation corridor that traverse the building in what creates a network of streets, alleyways, a climate zone: microcosm of the city within a building.

    Communication from Public Name: Damian Pipkins Date Submitted: 02/23/2020 07:54 AM Council File No: 19-0770 Comments for Public Posting: This is my public comment for building ideas for the Leimert Park parking lots near the Crenshaw LAX line. Housing Ideas Mirador Housing – Madrid, Spain Mirador Housing – Madrid, Spain • Mirador housing in Madrid’s Sanchinarro quarter is more than just a block of flats. • It’s closer to a vertical collection of mini neighborhoods. • Dutch architectural firm MVRDV created slits between the blocks in the construction imagined as upright alleyways, and the large open space near the top has been dubbed the “sky plaza.” Mirador Housing – Madrid, Spain • This “semi-public” area provides residents with a communal meeting place and features a garden with stunning views of the nearby Guadarrama Mountains. • The project won the Madrid municipality’s Best Design in Housing prize in 2005, even though it wasn’t completed until 2012. • It contains 165 apartments. Hatert Housing – Netherlands Hatert Housing – Netherlands • Tower Hatert in the Dutch city of Nijmegen is part of the local government’s plan to invigorate its housing. • The rippling, sculpture-like 13-story building was designed by Rotterdam-based studio 24H Architecture. • This development houses 72 apartments as well as a health care center on the ground floor. Hatert Housing – Netherlands • The timber used throughout the construction is FSC certified. • And the non-aligned balconies – with the railings apparently inspired by leaf patterns – ensure that each unit gets enough natural light, while also offering residents uninterrupted views of their surroundings. • This futuristic looking tower was finished in 2011.

Byera Hadley, born in 1872, was a distinguished architect responsible for the design and execution of a number of fine buildings in New South Wales. He was dedicated to architectural education, both as a part-time teacher in architectural drawing at the Sydney Technical College, and culminating in his appointment in 1914 as Lecturer-in-Charge at the College’s Department of Architecture. Under his guidance, the College became acknowledged as one of the finest schools of architecture in the British Empire. Byera Hadley made provision in his will for a bequest to enable graduates of architecture from a university in NSW to travel in order to broaden their experience in architecture, with a view to advancing architecture upon their return to Australia. Today, the Byera Hadley Travelling Scholarship fund is managed by Perpetual as Trustee, in conjunction with the NSW Architects Registration Board. For more information on Byera Hadley, and the Byera Hadley Travelling Scholarships go to www.architects.nsw.gov.au or get in contact with the NSW Architects Registration Board at: Tim Williams was awarded Level 2, 156 Gloucester Street, Sydney NSW 2000.
