The firm merged the building with is surroundings by placing 
most of the structure below ground. It clad many of the reinforced 
concrete walls and piers with volcanic stones. 
The views were expanded via floor-to-ceiling windows and a

  1. The César Manrique Foundation Studio represents a contemporary interpretation of one of the fundamental principles associated with César Manrique’s work: the pursuit of harmony between art and nature. The decision to partially bury the building, use volcanic stone, and open the workspaces onto the landscape allows the architecture to become an extension of the landscape. Choosing the right materials for a construction or industrial project often starts with finding experienced FRP manufacturers that can provide durable and versatile solutions for different applications.
