Introduction This Competition Brief aims to define the rules for the organization of the Nou Palau Blaugrana architectural competition elaborated into 2 discrete phases. This document also serves to regulate the terms and conditions by which the final competition winner will be selected and awarded the position of “General Planner” for the Nou Palau Blaugrana project, including but not limited to the following: drafting of the complete Schematic and Design Development Package (Projecte Bàsic) and the complete Construction Documents Package (Projecte Executiu) for the Nou Palau Blaugrana, as well as the supervision of the construction work and successful testing, commissioning and turnover of the arena to FCB. 1.1. Background Futbol Club Barcelona (“FCB”), in September 2012, commissioned a viability study of the possible strategic real estate options for the Club. The study was performed by a multi-disciplinary team comprised of international and local consultants, which analyzed various options in a preliminary phase called VSA (Venues Strategic Analysis). The result of this feasibility study was presented to the FCB Board of Directors (“Junta”) on the 9th of December 2013 and recommended the rehabilitation and reform of the existing stadium, Camp Nou, and the construction of a new Palau Blaugrana as well as the re-organization of the entire FCB site and its relationship with the neighborhood, neighbors, roads and city. The Board of Directors approved the proposal and on the 5th of April 2014, the FCB Members (Socis) approved the proposal, Nou Espai Barça project, in a referendum with over 72% of the votes in favor of the Project. In order to meet this mandate established by the Junta and Members (“Socios”), FCB expanded its internal organization in the summer of 2014 established a Espai Barça Team spearheaded by William T. Mannarelli, Director Espai Barça, to focus solely on the development of the Project. As part of this process, FCB retained several international and local consultants from the VSA Phase 1) to develop the Project program further, 2) to conduct an extensive cost plan establishing target budgets for the Project units, 3) to establish Project timelines through an investigation of construction phasing and 4) to develop a robust business plan ensuring FCB’s success for generations to come. In order to facilitate the organization and planning of Espai Barça, the Project was divided thematically into the following 6 units: Modification of the Metropolitan General Plan (“MPGM”) Les Corts 1.1 Drafting and negotiation of necessary urban planning issues to support the Espai Barça Project at Les Corts 1.2 Conceptual design & geometric definition of infrastructure works surrounding FCB’s primary campus 1.3 Engineering design & construction of infrastructure derived from planning agreed with Barcelona’s City Council: • Extension and redevelopment of surrounding roads • Reconfiguration of road layout and modification of campus boundaries 4 • Compensatory measures to satisfy neighbor’s and/or City Council’s requirements U.P.2 - Modification of the Metropolitan General Plan (“MPGM”) Sant Joan Despí + Mini Estadi 2.1 Drafting and negotiation of necessary urban planning issues to support the Espai Barça Project at Sant Joan Despí 2.2 Conceptual design and geometric definition of infrastructure works surrounding FCB’s training facility 2.3 Engineering design and construction of infrastructure derived from planning approved with Sant Joan Despí‘s City Council: • Extension and redevelopment of surrounding roads • Changes to road layout and modification of training facility boundaries • Compensatory measures to satisfy neighbors and/or City Council requirements 2.4 New Mini Stadium (6k capacity) at the Ciutat Esportiva Joan Gamper training facility 2.5 Construction of complementary infrastructure including parking facilities for 600 cars, pedestrian bridges, acoustic barriers, etc. in St. Joan Despí 2.6 Deconstruction of current Mini Stadium and site preparation to receive Nou Palau Blaugrana U.P.3 - Nou Camp Nou (approx.105.000 capacity) 3.1 Subject of FCB’s other international architectural competition running in parallel 3.2 Comprehensive renovation of Camp Nou retaining existing structure without exceeding 130.000 m2 3.3 Demolition & new construction of Tier 1 incorporating skyboxes at the back of Tier 1 3.4 Renovation of Tier 2 including removal of “Fila O” & positioning of press area at the back of Tribuna 3.5 Completion of Tier 3 behind goals & Tribuna 3.6 Insertion of VIP seating & complementary hospitality spaces without compromising Socio’s seats 3.7 Construction of new, exterior perimeter platform “Ameba” to facilitate horizontal circulation around the stadium and improve ingress and egress 3.8 New museum under Ameba Tribuna side 3.9 New Nike Store under Ameba Tribuna side 3.10 New façade including new vertical circulation 3.11 New, cable net roof providing 100% seat coverage including demolition of “Marquesina” 3.12 Construction while maintaining uninterrupted, hosting of football matches without lowering capacity under approx. 80.000 U.P.4 - Nou Palau Blaugrana (approx. 10k sports capacity / 12.5k end stage standing capacity) 4.1 Subject of this international architectural competition 4.2 New Palau approx. 40k m2 on the current site of the Mini Stadium 4.3 Multipurpose Facility hosting sport & other live entertainment 4.4 Includes an annexed, auxiliary practice court (approx. 2k capacity) to host basketball, roller hockey, handball and indoor soccer as well as an ice rink (approx. 500 capacity) 4.5 Football pitch positioned on top of annexes for FCBESCOLA U.P.5 - Espai Barça Campus + Underground Parking (approx. 3.500 capacity) 5.1 Deconstruction of Existing Buildings: Palau Blaugrana, Pista de Gel & FCB’s Offices 5 5.2 Temporary Structures: Museum, Nike Store & other guest related services 5.3 Construction of Underground Parking Facilities 5.4 Removal of Perimeter Fence & Construction of Public Plaza 5.5 Construction of New Buildings: New FCB Headquarter Office (approx. 7.000m2) and mixed-use development U.P.6 - Global Projects 6.1 Project Planning Costs contributing to U.P.1 – U.P.5 6.2 Overall Project Management including BIM Services 6.3 Overall Project Schedule 6.4 Overall Project Business Plan 6.5 Overall Project Financial & Legal Services 1.2. Current Situation U.P.1 - Modification of the Metropolitan General Plan (“MPGM”) Les Corts Concerning U.P.1 MPGM Les Corts, FCB has a technically approved master plan; however, this has not been formally submitted to Barcelona’s City Council for various political reasons. The zoning modifications to accommodate other uses and corresponding compensatory measures need to be approved by Barcelona’s City Council before licenses can be submitted leading to the commencement of construction. As U.P.1 MPGM will NOT be approved by the time of this competition, it can be anticipated that the winning architect of this competition may have to revisit various urban conditions to satisfy Barcelona’s City Council before licenses can be submitted. The planners / consultants leading this effort are as follows: - Garrigues: Legal Council - Blanch + Conca Arquitectura (“BCA”): Urban Planner - RACC: Mobility Report - Architect Juan Pablo Mitjans: Protected Monument Report - SGM: Environmental Evaluation - Promo Assessors: Economic Evaluation The work product from the planners / consultants listed above have been organized into chapters under ANNEX 1: MPGM LES CORTS DESIGN
