It’s a place capable of adjusting and adapt to several transformation needs and creative process exploration. A common ground, with free and democratic access, where for two weeks a community is able to free it self from its routine, fulfilling the need for new situations.

The composition and geometry of the proposal, follows the programatic conditions, avoiding formal excesses but assuming a strong statement with the public space.

The roof floats above the wood structure, composed of four pillars and one beam in order to reinforce the structural lightness. Vertical lines are prioritized together with the translucent polycarbonate roof.
