The proposal reinforces the existence of a dry place leaning, where traditionally a fair selling fruit and vegetables develops. This same defines the entrance to the building. It is at this strategic level where the building is considered from the point of view of functional and formal.

The volume of the building is generated as a neutral response on the main artery and gives a more permeable and plastic character to the secondary streets where access to plazas, courtyards and items of equipment  are situated. So building on an edge of the ground releasing part of this and creating an urban void is also supported.

Their morphology and materiality socket walls form a concrete floor that covers all health and related services, thus containing the main activity.

In the first level the materialization pursues the unit and this is generated with the use of concrete blocks arranged in an inverted position as a permeable screen that controls light entering the field sifting the lighting changes that are generated daily. The cover , that must save considerable lights (23m x 32m), is designed from a synergistic resistant, lightweight fabric that accompanies and enhances overall formal resolution.
