The project is defined by integration of public and coexistence spaces, such as the plaza terraces and gardens and amenities. Based on the above, it was decided to place the construction in the center of the property to generate free spaces, having a wooded plaza for community use to the north, and a more private garden to the south.

The aim was to give a natural feeling to the building, which is reflected in the green nuances of the planters distributed on the facade, contrasting with the pigmented concrete walls that resemble the color of the region’s land. In this way, a certain subtlety is generated in this volumetry and allows the building to age gracefully.
