The idea is to count on the materials around, and solve the residual elements whit those materials. It is important to incorporate a grove that needs not many attentions, as well as endow it with basic equipment that make the use of the space attractive, increasing on the other hand, the parking area. The space is organized starting with the design of one element of urban furniture which contains itself solutions of the established needs: sitting, lighting, vegetation and vehicles limited access. The repeating of this element generates different environments inside the complex.
