Work in collaboration with Eduard Bru, architect.

The project relies on a double solicitation: the program, and its relation with the place, which subsidiary depends on the relation stablished by the building in which the center is inserted.

The program is organized on two floors and three different facade fronts: opening towards the Plaza Folch i Torres, oriented to the patio, and the access through the passage, that the building where its placed creates.

To make future program changes possible, the layout must allow working either with two entrances (Square and Passage), or just one of them.
