This project is part of an approach to reorganize the Sports City of Cáceres planned by the Junta de Extremadura. This is a first small actuation focused on the garden and the café-bar by the pool. This global vision of the Sports City is undertaken from a landscape point of view, to give a uniform atmosphere to all buildings.

The awning is divided with the structure and invades part of the green area. When being able to be operated manually by sectors causes a simple interaction with the user. Its intense yellow color is surprisingly integrated in the autumn, with the leaves of the poplars and fig trees of the field and in summer, being the complementary color to the blue sky, it generates a playful and pleasant sensation when creating contrast of colors.
