Project in
Alcampo, Seville, a shopping centre with 46 shop premises, in existence since
1990. A metallic ellipsoid structure has been installed with covering tarpaulin
tied down with cord on its lower perimeter. This structure forms the ALCAMPO
supermarkets logo and is located above a stair well, forming a Pillar visible
from afar.
The lower
metallic tubular structure forms arches from end to end, making up the
ellipsoid. With the objective of strengthening the structure, the structure
includes ribs laid along the length of the ellipsoid. The membrane forming it
is of red Ferrari 502 PVC, enveloping the structure, and is tensioned at the
bottom hollow of the tower with rubber cords.
