Police Station and Multipurpose Space in Xixona, Spain by Daniel Martí i Pérez & Natàlia Ferrer BernabeuDecember 10th, 2012 by Sumit Singhal
Article source: Daniel Martí i Pérez & Natàlia Ferrer Bernabeu The space requirement program requested by the developer (Townhall) included all the departments, public and restricted use, necessary for the proper operation of a facility of this nature. In the office we thought to incorporate a public space which could be used by the neighborhood as a multipurpose space that would allow us to provide greater flexibility to the building.

In this way the upper body includes the entry from the avenue that is configured as a ramp, which with a slope opposite to that of the street, allows in the most natural way the entry into the building.

Around the corner this body, previously understood as ground floor, becomes the first floor and with its cantilever marks the entrance to the multipurpose space.

The ground floor space is shared between the versatile space for the neighborhood and restricted use for the Police building. In the basement, lit by a courtyard, we placed the locker rooms, the briefing room and a large warehouse.
