The proposal submitted by the team comprised of the consulting firm WSP SPAIN APIA, the studio of GUILLERMO VÁZQUEZ CONSUEGRA, and the studio EOVASTUDIO has won the competition for drafting the preliminary design for integrating the railway into the city of Granada and the basic design for the expansion and improvement of the station. The project received an exceptional score of 47.24 points out of a maximum of 49, positioning itself as the proposal with the highest technical and architectural quality among all the bidders.
The proposed intervention transcends the scale of the railway infrastructure to propose a powerful green corridor that will traverse the city. This large public park will bridge the historical gap left by the railway, fostering a spatial connection between the established city center and the new urban areas, based on criteria of sustainability, bioclimatic design, and the promotion of active mobility.
The project will cover a length of 2.4 kilometers and an area of 200,000 m².

Architect Guillermo Vázquez Consuegra has been announced as the winner of the International Competition to design the new Sea Museum in the city of Trieste, Italy.
The subject of the tender launched by the council was the requalification of the most relevant element among the port warehouse ensemble of ‘Porto Vecchio’, a magnificent building called ‘Magazzino 26’ listed as building of cultural interest. It was built in 1893, with four levels and a 244 linear meters long facade, it is a beautiful example of industrial architecture, built in white Istria limestone and cast iron columns.
As he already did some years ago, when he transformed the old Genoa Arsenal into the city Sea Museum on the occasion of the celebration of Genoa as European Capital of Culture in 2004, Vazquez Consuegra will work on this distinguished building in Trieste’s ‘Porto Vecchio’ to convert it to the new seat of the Sea Museum, currently located on Campo Marzio’s street in the same city.
The creation of a new museum pole inside ‘Porto Vecchio’, together with other cultural strategies already going on in the same area, offers a real chance for the requalification of this significant port location of the city of Trieste.
The temporary consortium between Guillermo Vazquez Consuegra Architects and the Italian engineering consulting: Politecnica, Consilium, Cooprogetti, Mads & Associati, Re.Te, F. Lambertucci, M. Endrizzi and SGM Consulting, will be in charge of the project and the site work management of the new Sea Museum.
El estudio de Vázquez Consuegra ha resultado ganador del Concurso Internacional de Urbanismo para la reestructuración del área central de la estación principal de Ginebra, la Estación de ferrocarriles de Cornavin.
El jurado presidido por el arquitecto portugués Gonzalo Byrne decidió por unanimidad otorgar el primer premio al proyecto presentado por el arquitecto Guillermo Vázquez Consuegra, que junto al estudio local Frei Rezakhanlou Architectes, será por tanto, el encargado de elaborar la nueva imagen del conjunto urbano de Cornavin, una amplia zona de la ciudad suiza ubicada al borde de su centro histórico.
