Emergency center in Huesca

Summary

Outside the building has a clear and friendly urban presence, expressing its modulated and versatile condition. The different openings qualify the scale of the project and the adjustable horizontal slat systems offer a changing image of the facades, depending on their position throughout the day. The attention paid to the urbanization of the exterior spaces also contributes to the integration of the building in its immediate surroundings.

Inside, all the spaces have natural light through the facades, on the ground and first floors, and from the longitudinal platform, as a patio-garden, on the semi-basement floor. This layout allows, in turn, for this semi-basement floor to also have openings in the east facades and in the north and south ends of its facades, which also allow natural lighting and ventilation.
