LaO - Thermal Baths | //deAbajoGarcía// & Héctor Fernández Elorza
Location: Fuencaliente, La Palma, España / Spain (Plan View)
The proposal looks for a cautious operation with the existing landscape, giving prominence to the water. The topography and the volcanic matter of the site, close to the Fuente Santa natural spring -between the Teneguía Volcano and the Echentive beach- become the main value for the project, taking them as the conditions for its organization.
A new geometry of paths made of volcanic stone, retaining walls built with irregular blocks of the same matter and extracted from the surroundings, and concrete platforms using the same sand and gravel, is overlaped to the volcanic environment, empowering it and introducing a complex program, without standing out.
Superimposed to this landscape intervention, the plan of water of the main pool of the baths underlines the horizon, standing out with a circular geometry similar to the vast amount of agricultural deposits that exists in the site.
