Thousand Suns Library

Year: 2019.
Client: Madrid City Council.
Status: In progress.
Madrid public library located in significantly rectangular plot with slope of over 5 metres and affected by the shadows provoked by a residential building of nine stories and almost 30 meters high. The library emerges as an opportunity to give full response to the landscape, social and environmental challenges of the place.

Construction of 30 temporary rooms for relatives of neonates admitted to the ICU at Madrid's Hospitals, Ramón y Cajal and La Paz.

Borgen Hub

The proposal has a huge potential for setting up uses and functions.

However, we understand the architectural program as something inclusive in which people and stakeholders related.
