The project responds to the features that its location provides. On the one hand, it reacts to the need to create ties with the urban tissue and its inward development, while on the other hand, there is the desire to maintain the expressiveness of its natural setting. This produces a dialectic relationship, both temperate and powerful, between the artifice of the urban realm and the naturalness of what is organic. Consequently, the building’s mass takes shape depending on the tensions produced by its surrounding spaces. Towards the city and looking onto block’s side streets, crisp elevations are composed in an orderly and calm manner. Towards the sea, the landscape’s spatial traits and the geography’s configurations lead to the generation of sweeping concave surfaces in order to create a forceful link between the building and its surrounding natural environment.
