Public School in Abarzuza / Voilá! + Santi Virto

Located in the middle of the valley, on the outskirts of the town, the proposal, escaping from urban conceptions, has been inspired by the rural constructions that mark the landscape. The general basic concept of the design can be defined as a “school farm”. A building in resemblance to the numerous nearby agricultural constructions, but converted into a fun place, a reference from the town and the environment through the subtle formal manipulation of its envelope. In compliance with urban regulations, the building, on one floor, is located at the northern end of the plot, within the area intended for buildings and patios, with road and pedestrian access (the latter protected by entrance hall) from the road.
