Article source: diaz|rojo arquitectos La Corredoria health center is a new building whose programme demanded four independent functional areas, which included Emergency, admission of mentally ill patients, as well as the typical programme for outpatient services and all of this in a suburban alienated surrounding, hardly any reference except the rounded hill which was replaced by the building, the light curved roads from La Corredoria quarter and the distant views of the Naranco mountain, as a slightly curved shape.

The consolidated spaces and the whole assistance and administrative rooms such as consulting and medical care rooms, offices and even admission rooms are part of the second group.

Due to this and also because of the unlikely change of spaces, it is considerated that all of these can adapt to an irregular geometry. On the contrary, the administrative and assistance spaces of a medium scale, need versatility and regularity for their functionality.

With reference to the curve roads of the surrounding, and the hills landscapes from the central Asturian area.

Between both parts of the programme, the spacious hall -in horizontal and vertical directions- joins the different spaces and looks for the pleasant light from the courtyards.
