It is a study and play space for Ceickor University students (specialized in protected crops). The construction commemorates the seasons of the year, the main axis is the summer solstice, that day, the sun sets behind the stairs of the building marking the beginning of autumn.
The space is full of reminiscences, for example, the shapes of the windows recall the grooves used for agriculture, the clay bricks, the clay used for planting and the center of the project is a campfire, which is also a forum that invites the contemplation and talk between students. For its construction all existing trees were respected, in addition local labor and honestly built regional materials were used.
