[3] The building is a diaphanous large arena, with a glass roof along its spine and a movable structure to control the overhead natural light.
The tall white steel rib-cage arches give the interior space an organic element, whereas the exterior is geometric and abstract, in day or when illuminated at night.
In early 2018, the Catalan architect Enric Ruiz-Geli was announced to be the winner of a private architecture competition to build the new CaixaForum Valencia inside L'Àgora.
CaixaForum Valencia will adapt 6,500 square meters to house two exhibition halls, an auditorium with 300 seats, two multipurpose rooms, a bar-restaurant, a bookstore, and family and educational space on a second level.
The space will offer art exhibitions, conferences, concerts and shows, social events, educational and family workshops and activities for the elderly.
