This project was selected because it develops an interesting spatial exploration and it’s located with creativity and respect in a complex urban site, exalting the native culture. It contributes to the architectural identity of the place, giving it a new artistic and functional activity, as a complements to the civic and touristic role of the square, without disturbing the sightseeing or compromising its traditional character. Besides this is a very consistent proposal for the student’s developing level (third year) and she used digital media to study, design and express the spatiality of the project in a sensitive way.
