Scope and Content
The project series documents the competion entry for the design, construction and exploitation of a biomethanisation, recycling and composting plant, and an ecomuseum, in Pinto, Spain. In 2000, Abalos & Herreros, in collaboration with Urbaser, won the competition organised by Consejaría de Gestíon y Desarollo del Medio Ambiente (GEDESMA), Comunidad Autónoma de Madrid. The plant was built between 2001 and 2003. The firm also worked with Renata Sentkiewicz and Wouter Van Daele. The firm identified this project as number 130.
The complex was built in harmony with the landscape using the natural hill. The roof is a series of terraces creating an artificial landscape complements its surrounding.
Documenting the project are conceptual, design development, presentation and working drawings, textual records, and photographic materials.
Materials in this project series were kept in their original order.
