High strength, ease of transport, and simplicity of assembly are among the many major advantages of steel.

Steel not only brings lightness to a design, but can also offer different expressions of color and texture, depending on the treatment of the material. Below we present a selection of 14 photos of steel architecture from well-known photographers such as Adrien Williams, Imagen Subliminal, and Sergio Pirrone.

The temporailty of a place that is occupied provisionally, often precipitates the lack of interest in its maintenance, and when it is known beforehand that the use of a space will be limited in time, the concern for it is undermined.

The site is on what was the Ciudadela (citadel), an area serving as a transition between the Pamplona’s historic core and the ensanches, the later gridded extensions of the city.

Far in the distance, river beds are spotted thanks to those winding rows: it is a gesture offered by nature as a sign of life in an arid, dry scene.

The building occupies a singular geometry plot, the available space has the form of an almost equilateral triangle whose facades give urban roads of different character. On one side is the Avenue of Merindades that is the only way that surrounds the building and therefore must accommodate the road access, the building also offers street facade of The Almoceda having pedestrian nature, while its third façade overlooking the park leading down to the shore of Queiles. Moreover, the plot has a significant widening gap in the north-south direction, so that in the southern corner of the plot, in the encounter between the Merindades Avenue and La Almoceda street lies the highest point, with a total drop of nearly two meters.
