The project uses the current plot of the small premises which the current Cervantes Institute owns. The proposal starts as an optimistic reaction to its physical and cultural environment and a thorough analysis of the program. The complex is organized in three clear volumes, almost autonomous which solve the different functional areas. All of them are connected through a generous circulation space, almost a glazed street where the chinense citizens will feel the Spanish culture. The three volumes respond to three modern typologies: the linear block, the tower and the auditorium. The administrative area and the classrooms; the exhibition areas and the library; the main theatre, a multipurpose room and the cafe are hosted in each typology .The volumes are arranged apparently in a random position where the built areas are as important as the interstitial spaces, creating new public spaces which the city will enjoy.
