The project is inserted in a complexand saturated urban area.

Through the artificial reconstruction of a new urban topography generates a natural space bounded for learning and recreation of children as well as a volumetric own entity within the school

How to interpret the drawings of the children.
As child psychologist Mª Luisa Ferrerós says, in his book hold me, MOM (Editorial Planeta), "drawings give us the most reliable clues about their feelings, their desires, fears, pledged". They don't know to explain them and we often do not know interpret their signals. "We can then use his drawings as a child dictionary". and if ask children how they would like to be your school? In the preliminary design phase we decided to do an experiment. We bring together a group of thirteen children between 5 and 7 years (age in which drawings are becoming more detailed).We ask that they draw us school that would like to have and which then explain us what they like to do in him. children 10 drew a similar home building. All had that they would like to feel like at home, pour the siesta as at home, drink the glass of milk from home, to play with the cat who lives at home, carry toys from his home...Undoubtedly, children at school want to feel at home.

The Valley as identity element.
The natural environment that surrounds us is part of our identity, culture and tradition, even our social values and daily habits. The project seeks to enhance the value of the Valley through an urban interpretation of the same.
Rebuild a natural environment for the children.
The project is inserted in an urban area complex and almost collapsed. Through the artificial reconstruction of a new urban topography generates a natural space bounded for training and recreation of children as well as a volumetric own entity within the school.
