The project of the Community Centre and Exterior Spaces fits in a set of equipments that intent to reuse this urban area and to endow it with the necessary public equipment. The intention of this project is to recycle the urban structure. So it gives back to the land the natural morphology. The proposal has the main intents to: recycle the existing urban structure through the creation of a natural platform; to implant the building in the north limit, defining an urban front for the square allowing an exterior space of leisure in the interior of the block; to redesign the walk through passages between different squares; to organize the program guarantee its autonomy and its link with the common services.
