O Design

Sobre Cubes Aleorion Farol

Cubes Aleorion é um farol conceito que foi desenvolvido para a beira do quebra-mar do porto marítimo de Volos, na Grécia. A torre do farol é composta por blocos de concreto em forma de cubo empilhados uns sobre os outros, gradualmente deslocados do centro, diferenciando-se em tamanho e recortados de várias maneiras, criando vazios internos que abrigam uma escada para o topo. As aberturas em cada nível enquadram diferentes perspectivas da cidade, do porto, da baía e da costa oposta. A estrutura toda em concreto aparente ecoa a materialidade do porto da cidade, o quebra-mar pavimentado e o entorno urbano.

Propriedades Únicas: The Cubes Aleorion is a proposal for a new lighthouse for the port of Volos, Greece. A tower is formed by cube shaped all concrete blocks that are placed upon each other, are horizontally slightly shifted off center and are cut out in various ways, creating internal voids that house the stairway to the top. It is a modern interpretation of the so called Aleorion of Xerxes, originally built around 480 BC in the middle of the sea passage between Skiathos island and mount Pelion in central Greece.
Dimensões e Embalagem: Design concept was developed on the basis of cube shaped concrete blocks placed upon each other, forming a 14.25m tower.
Etiquetas: lighthouse, concrete, brutalism, observatory, port, greece
Tecnologia de Produção: Cubes Aleorion design concept was developed on the basis of cube shaped concrete blocks placed upon each other. The blocks are horizontally shifted around the main vertical axis, gradually differentiate in size and finally are cut out in various ways, creating internal voids and openings. Inside the hollow space created, the stairway to the top is being placed. The exposed all-concrete lighthouse structure echoes the materiality of the port breakwater and the urban character of the surroundings.
Desafio de Design: The real challenge was to create ana architectural form that respects various factors at the same time, such the landmark position of the lighthouse at the entry of the city port, the materiallity and aesthetics of the urban enviroment and the long history roots of the city and the port itself and the character of a maritime nation sailing the Mediterranean for thousand of years.
Pesquisa: The research spanned almost the whole naval history of Greece and finally found inspiration at the most ancient maritime safety structure in the world that once stood on the reef Lefteris, in the middle of the sea passage between Skiathos island and mount Pelion in central Greece
Inspiração: The project was inspired by the so called Aleorion of Xerxes, built around 480 BC and once stood on the reef Lefteris of the Aegean Sea, Greece. It is considered as the most ancient maritime safety structure in the world, built 250 years before the Lighthouse of Alexandria. The Dolomite stones, used for the construction of the lighthouse were placed on top of each other forming a tower that functioned as a warning sign of the reef and the nearby very shallow waters.
Duração do Projeto: Cubes Aleorion location is the port of Volos, Greece
Fluxo de Operação: The vertical circulation, besides a necessity for technical and maintenance purposes, serves as an open invitation to visitors to explore the structure and enjoy the view. Each level frames a different viewpoint of the bay, thus creating new perspectives of the city, the port, the sea and opposite coast of the Pagasetic Gulf. The casual walk on the paved breakwater is enriched with a new end-destination, encouraging the extension of the city waterfront promenade onto the sea. A new landmark of the port and the city is born.
