Palacio de Congresos, Convention center in Cuatro Caminos, Madrid, Spain.
The Palacio de Congresos features three distinct volumes: two rectangular sections for administration and exhibitions, plus a truncated hyperbolic cylinder structure.
Pablo Pintado designed the building after winning an architectural competition in 1964, leading to its official inauguration on May 31, 1970.
The center received a significant addition in 1980 when artist Joan Miró created a mural that covers the upper frieze of the building's facade.
The convention center stands at Paseo de la Castellana 99, between the districts of Tetuán and Cuatro Caminos, offering spaces for conferences and exhibitions.
The building represents one of Madrid's first modern horizontal structures, combining administrative functions with exhibition spaces in a rationalist design pattern.
