This residential project consists of 60 bedrooms (of three different types) with areas for management and administrative services, staff facilities, living and activity areas, dining and service areas (kitchen, pantry, laundry and backing facilities), health and hydrotherapy areas, technical areas, storage rooms, and a garage.
The triangular shape and sharp drop of the construction area have heavily conditioned the proposal. Therefore, it was decided to design a building consisting of two structures which are perpendicular to each other, forming a kind of " T. "
The longer structure, to the south, is where you can find the common areas (social and dining areas), administrative areas and most of the bedrooms. It lies parallel to the slope of the land, fitting on the ground and taking advantage of the southern solar exposure and the view over the river.
This structure has three floors (partially four), two above the ground level and one below (partially two).The second structure to the west, has three floors, two above the ground level and one below, completely underground, where the garage is located.The building is more closed and restrained to the north (to the street) and open to the south overlooking the valley.
On the entrance (ground) floor are located the reception and activity areas, the living and socializing areas, the dining areas, and support services. To the west you can find the health area with the medical office, nursing room, physiotherapy, gym, indoor pool (hydrotherapy and leisure), and backing facilities (dressing rooms and toilets).
On the first floor there are exclusively bedrooms and hospital support areas. On the basement level there are 10 bedrooms and eight suites with a bedroom and living room (all in the southern structure). In the western structure is the garage (20 spots), the individual storage rooms, the technical areas, the living areas, the assisted bathrooms, and the laundry. On the sub-basement level there are eight suites, individual storage rooms, technical areas, and backing facilities.
Green areas are found throughout, integrating all of the paths and shading lounge areas.
