Architect's statement

To show the symbolic load of this space, where the convent of San Miguel was located, we have spread four red stone carpets on the ground, which are drilled in order to be enriched by the existing vegetation, and are intermingled with surfaces of albero sand assigned to playing. A big plane that integrates the importance of this urban enclave in terms of traffic for visitors and its use as a comfortable resting area

These cobbled carpets retract themselves to generate benches on which to sit down and enjoy the view, facing the arch of San Miguel. The voids in the pavement are filled with sand and coloured gravel. The balustrade is made of steel plates oriented to different points to create a singular image of lights and shadows. Over the balustrade there are some wood elements that provide a comfortable piece to lean on.
