Diagonal
Mar is a large urban redevelopment project centered around
Barcelona's famous Avenue Diagonal near where it meets the
sea. The ambitious plan includes five residential phases,
a retail center, three hotels, three office buildings, a convention
center and a public park. This last element is the focus here,
a unique design by EMBT
(Enrique Miralles Benedetta Tagliabue) that has been both
praised
and derided
in the press. |
