Finsa and RIA collaborate to launch an architectural competition in November
With the support of Fundación RIA, Finsa will promote next month an open architecture competition that will transform the A Panda da Dá estate to consolidate it as a space of opportunities for the sustainable management of the territory.
Finsa will continue to transform its A Panda da Dá estate (As Pontes de García Rodríguez, A Coruña) to consolidate it as a space of opportunities for the sustainable management of the territory.
With the support of Fundación RIA, the Galician timber company will promote an architecture competition in November, which will allow the buildings at A Panda da Dá to be renovated to accommodate new training and research activities, as well as to support visits to the estate by entities related to land management and the timber value chain.
Finsa aims to connect with the entire forestry industry chain for the creation and consolidation of this space of opportunity that respects and values the natural and built heritage. Clients, collaborators, neighbouring forest communities and other key agents in the sector will play a fundamental role in the promotion and development of A Panda da Dá.
After 30 years carrying out a multifunctional management in this 410 ha estate, Finsa wants to take a step further to turn A Panda da Dá into a space of opportunities where to show and develop the potential of the sustainable management of the territory.
Fundación RIA worked hand in hand with Finsa on the analysis, strategic design and the establishment of conditions and quality standards. This preliminary work laid the groundwork for an architectural competition to be announced in the next month, after which the deadline for receipt of applications will open.
In the coming weeks, Fundación RIA will provide further details on this collaboration, as well as the characteristics and dates of the call for applications.
