摘要:The traditional image of the buildings for the 'Fiesta" must be seen as a point in a long process of definition in which important changes and innovations have been assimilated. Nowadays, things that should derive in some of these changes are happening. The "Plazas" are being used for purposes so different to those which motivated their construction as being the site for concerts or different kinds of shows. What most defines the traditional building is the centrally focused definition of the seats that allows a clear vision from any point of the ”ruedo”. Introducing a scene box meant extracting this focus from the "ruedo", so the optimal location should be found. Traditionally, the public has taken an active role in the "corrida". Each one of the seats is a place to look from, but it becomes too a place to be seen. So this seemed like the natural location for the scene, that will remark this peculiar relationship between the two main parts of the building, the rows of seats and the "ruedo". Obviously, the total amount of seats should be kept, so those to be invaded by the scene were displaced to the diametrically opposite point. What we, finally, have, is a traditional "ruedo" surrounded by a crown of seats with a varying width, where a scene box is placed. This compromise between Tradition and Evolution is what we propose as a way to explore in the future evolution of the "Plazas".
