Kindergarten Arcosur

Summary

Arcosur neighborhood is the last residential expansion to the south of Zaragoza.

The objective of the project – in addition to strict compliance with the normative, functional and economic requirements – is to transform a still inhospitable land into a habitable space, to create a pleasant and suitable place for the child’s scale, beyond the current absence of references in the surrounding urban environment.

The origin of the project is therefore in the definition of its essential functional, structural and constructive module, and in the subsequent repetition or addition of the same to configure the different spaces.
