School in A Veigadaña / Prieto + Patiño + Encaixe Arquitectura

In a complex and irregular plot a circle imposes its pure geometry. The nursery school is placed inside the circle, while two parallelepipeds determine the entrances. This recognizable geometry tries to dialogue with an environment full of contrasts: industrial estate, rural constructions, crops and pilgrims walking through the Camino de Santiago. The school faces south in a sequence of large windows and skylights protected from direct radiation in the summer by wide cantilevers and, simultaneously, allowing it in the colder months.
