"glass roofs ..."

Saints Cornelius and Cyprian, Revilla de Santullán (Palencia).
.
We fully agree on the protection of cultural property, but that it threatens the integrity and uniformity of the property protected, since that would, in the words of the proverb: " Make a cake pan as a " get a result that is flawed, contrary to what was intended.
This is the case, when the attitude of "protection" seeks to develop a good idea without having fully understood.
.
In the Temple of Saints Cornelius and Cyprian, in Revilla de Santullán, the south facade has attached an enclosure, whose origin could be in a missing portico. The fact is, this space has been protected for centuries magnificent facade allowing reaches us in perfect condition. When conducted last restoration, it was thought that it was cheaper and provided more beauty to this home, natural light than artificial. Therefore, on the roof of the room, opened a long span occupied by a translucent material, which drops on the cover, a soft overhead light.
.
The solution is simple, not ugly or out of tune the whole and, in addition to saving on electricity, emphasizes the aesthetic qualities of the stone that protects. We can say that it is, a "brilliant idea."

San Pelayo, Arenillas de San Pelayo (Palencia).
.
view of the correctness of the above solution in the Church of San Pelayo, Arenillas de San Pelayo, we tried something similar but without the same elements.
.

The problem is that here there was no protective space prior to the south portal, so we had to create it. This will set up a simple structure, a framework based on two left feet, which bear a large transparent sheet Drain the water and protect the deteriorating image of the cover.
.

The trouble is that such a structure, which we do not know if it is material that mimics wood metal, or wood that seems plastic, metal or plastic that mimics wood seems, has been positioned so that the set completely at odds . If by far and we are shocked, closely resembles some scaffolding for its low altitude and inclination, hinder the overall vision of a beautiful home that deserved better. In addition, such structures have been embedded in the walls with metal parts and hardware elements that have to do much good to the stone. If the intention was good, that nobody doubts it, the result is quite doubtful.

Assumption, Lagunas de Somoza (León).
.
A more modest scale, the idea, the dubious idea was repeated in the temple of the Assumption, in Lagunas de Somoza (León). There, on the north door rescued, built on the corbels, beams have been a stark wood piece that supports the small translucent.
.

ugliness and doubt on the practical utility of the invention, should be added that the "crystal" or "methacrylate" or whatever it is, is cracked, do not know if by the grace of weather or the stoning of the small fry. But the damage is not yesterday, visited the place on the 16th of April 2000 and was well, went back on 5 April 2009, after nine years, and this element is even more flawed. The implication, again, neglect and poor maintenance.
.
To whom it may concern: remember that " who has a glass house, should not throw stones at your neighbor ." Therefore, try to amend their mistakes, do not follow advice of "restorative design", but qualified professionals, because protection is not "create." Those wishing to install neo-elements that mark contemporary left as his "art", do it in modern cores of cities and towns, but not in the historic buildings, bastard an art that they have not been able to create and whose spirit seems be unable to comprehend. And you, go to pillory and stocks, with no roof to protect it from the elements, until you understand who prostitute the heritage Not the best way to make history.
.
health and prosperity.
