Post SSP Competition: Convention Center Voting

Well, I'm a little late, as always!

Here are the entries!

1. Rotterdam Convention Center
The building consists in 4 floors distributed this way
1.-Convention Rooms and common areas
2.-Cafeteria and common areas
3.-Art Exposition places
4.-Envents place

The building is designed ina way that permits green areas to cover most of the terrain if you look from the sky, as well from the back of the building the green areas predominate the view, and because the roof is inclined it permits the grass to occupy far more area than the base area itself. Also to make it more efficient, ecologicly speaking, solar panels are located at the base of the building to generate power for air conditioning systems, as well the inclination of the building permits the irrigation of the green areas.
















2. Manila Convention Center








3. Moscow Convention Center






4. Jacksonville Convention Center

This is an extension to the Jacksonville, Florida convention center. It features a large show room for large conventions.

5. Grapevine Convention Center

The Center can host many types of events. There are two large main showrooms, meeting rooms, a large main hall and entrance gathering area, small rooms, a full size Auditorium, 8 loading docks and two cargo ramps, Kitchen and Banquet hall.
This is the Front/Main Entrance. There is a tree lined plaza for gatherings and a sunken ampitheater.


Here is a closeup of the facade at the traffic circle/drop off zone.


This is the backside of the building with some staff parking, equipment storage and loading docks.


This is a very vague map of the interior of the buildings first floor.
