The project is arranged around two courtyards.

One of these courtyards, the smaller one, is where the laboratories and research spaces are located, and the other, more generous and in communication with the rest of the campus, is where the lecture halls are located.

The connection between the two courtyards is made through the administrative areas and the dean’s offices, which, given their strategic position, are resolved with freer and more symbolic volumetrics.

The use of concrete as a base element and a defining element of the order of the whole complex is one of the basic elements of the project, as well as the relationship of all the pieces with the exterior.
