Builded surface: 8.210 m2

First price
The building has a compact and massive volume, with a clear and legible image.
This concept allows the liberation of the bigger longer outdoor playground as possible for children games and sports courts, oriented towards the South, looking for the best sunlight.

The volume is the result of a compositional strategy, which consists of the addition of certain special rooms with different uses and sizes (training-workshops, sports hall …) and the subtraction of others, to form interior courts which introduce light and reduce the floor area, in such a way in which as you went up, the construction became lighter.
