The project includes the construction of a new primary school that respects the NZEB requirements with an annexed gym and cultural services open to citizens, the redevelopment of a large park area and a portion of the city center. THE SCHOOL: In the low irrigated plain the courtyard represents the most typical and recognizable image of the landscape. The farmhouses represent the symbol par excellence. Thus was born the idea of developing a school building with a courtyard, in order not to lose the traces of the past, but reinterpreting the theme through softer and more organic forms that can be well combined with the sinuous lines of the new park.
THE URBAN PARK: it is structured on two main axes, one north-south connecting the Municipality and the swimming pools, while the other east-west, which from the center through the school leads to the park center. Clusters have been inserted within the green system which, linked together by a series of secondary pedestrian paths, define the various landscape units that characterize the park as a common thread.
