架构师提供的文本描述。这座新楼是在旧市场所在的地块上建造的。一个梯形的基础建筑，附在分隔墙上，有三个正面，位于最短的立面，俯瞰哥伦布广场。哥伦布广场由伊斯兰中世纪塔组成，是城市的象征和形象。

Text description provided by the architects. The new building has been built on the plot where the old market was placed. A trapezoidal base construction, attached to a separating wall, with three facades, locates the shortest façade where it overlooks the Columbus Square, which consists of the Islamic medieval tower that is the symbol and image of the city.

这种混合的方法，特别是将各种空间并列起来，使人想起意大利文艺复兴时期的伟大建筑的类型模型，其中包括一个市场上的大型公共大厅，一个容量巨大的公共空间，可直接从外部进入。

This hybridization approach and in particular the juxtaposition of spaces that evoke the typological model of the great Italian Renaissance buildings, which consists of a large communal hall over the market, a public space of great capacity with direct access from outside.

新项目建议将目前的立面线向广场靠拢，在广场上与相邻的建筑物保持一致。通过这种方式，它强调并突出了广场的主要主角-塔的存在。同时，它在历史中心内提供了一座当代建筑，与原有的建筑环境形成了和谐的组合，强调了城市物理与历史的连续性之间的关系。

The new project proposes to set back the current line of facade towards the square, where it is aligned with adjacent buildings. In this way it emphasizes and highlights the presence of the main protagonist of the square – the Tower. At the same time, it provides a contemporary building inside of its historic centre, getting a harmonious assembly with the pre-existent build environment, with an emphasis on the relationship between the physical and historical continuity in the city.

建筑物的功能和空间组织很简单：所有垂直通讯和服务的元素都附在分隔墙上，将主大厅与塞万提斯街平行，这是一条通往广场的步行街，从那里当然也可以进入市场。这样，大厅与机械和固定楼梯连接起来，加强了所有楼层的整合。

The functional and spatial organization of the building is simple: all the elements of vertical communication and services are attached to the separating wall, locating the main hall in parallel to Cervantes Street, a pedestrian street which lays down to the square, from where, of course, the market is accessible as well. In this way, the hall is connected with mechanical and fixed staircases that enhance the integration of all the buildings floors.

它是一个流动的、垂直的、连续的空间，具有不同功能的服务，当它们被实现时，这些功能将在每个层次上发生。在这个过程中，一个滑动门系统会隔离这个区域，因此它成为一个更有礼貌和代表性的空间。

It is a fluid, vertical and continuous space with the service of the different functions, which will take place in each level when they are implemented. The way around, a system of sliding doors will isolate that area, so it becomes a more courtly and representative space.

这间大的多用途房间可以分为两个区域，通过一个有盖的大露台俯瞰广场。楼梯的位置，机械和固定，提供了一个进入的水平的多用途房间，在那里可以看到宏伟的景观塔和广场。

The large multi-purpose room, which can be subdivided into two areas, overlooks the square through a large covered terrace. The position of the staircases, mechanical and fixed, provides an access to the level of the multi-purpose room where a magnificent view on the Tower and the square can be seen.

自然照明是这个宽敞的开放空间的主角。光和结构的设计，以满足这个房间的社会活动和庆祝活动的精确要求。事实上，面向北方的大天窗是大跨度网状结构的一部分。

Natural lighting is the protagonist of this ample open space. Light and structure are designed to meet the precise requirements of this room for social activities and celebrations. Indeed, large skylights facing to north are the parts of a reticulated structure of large spans.

由于建筑内部的各种功能，以及近邻的住宅建筑，通过正面的太阳能和视野控制是建筑的基础。

The solar and view control through the facades are fundamental in the building due to the various functions that take place inside and the proximity of residential constructions in its close surroundings.

利用金属格子作为立面的基本元素，以过滤景观，尽量减少阳光直射，借鉴了当地传统。当地房屋的格栅和石阶画出了一种微妙而优雅的银书法。此外，漂亮的瓷砖装饰他们的门框。这些元素和材料将在我们的建筑中呈现和诠释当代的视角，从而使哥伦布广场的历史环境得到适当而和谐的整合。

The use of metal lattices as an essential element of facades, in order to filter the views and minimize the direct sunlight, takes its reference from the local tradition. The grills and ledges of the local houses draw a subtle and elegant calligraphy of silver. In addition the beautiful tiles decorate their doorjambs. These elements and materials will be present and interpret in a contemporary perspective in our building; thus allow a proper and harmonious integration of the historic surroundings of the Columbus Square.
