The intervention in the historic Santa Clotilde Gardens creates a small open‑air theatre fully integrated into one of Catalonia’s most emblematic Noucentista landscapes. The project extends the garden’s original principles of order, clarity, and Mediterranean identity, using the existing topography to form tiered seating and pathways oriented toward Cala Boadella.
Inserted into natural forest clearings without removing vegetation, the new cultural space uses sablón—a local decomposed granite soil already present in the garden—to unify pavements, walls, and seating, ensuring material continuity with the historic ensemble.
The programme includes a circular stage, seating for around 300 people, and two small architectural volumes for services and dressing rooms. These buildings adopt simple geometries that echo the garden’s circular motifs and are placed in existing clearings to avoid impacting trees. The service building features a green roof, a central courtyard, and climbing vegetation that reinforces the garden’s Mediterranean character.
A gently descending path connects the volumes and leads visitors toward the sea, allowing the theatre to operate independently from garden visiting hours. The stage, defined by a continuous bench and a subtle ha‑ha, supports a wide range of cultural and educational activities.
The project prioritises environmental respect through the use of local materials, minimal earthworks, preservation of all vegetation, and passive, low‑maintenance construction strategies. Conceived as a social and cultural asset, the new theatre strengthens the dialogue with the historic garden while expanding its community, artistic, and educational potential. Since its inauguration, it has become a new gathering space that celebrates the natural and cultural heritage of Lloret de Mar.
