The buildings are located in a central part of the city South of the old city limits. The site is contiguous with the close-knit urban fabric, but does not share a direct relationship with the surrounding public space. The new buildings have been designed for this particular spot, occupying a space with unique characteristics within the existing urban structure. The complex is composed of two autonomous and differentiated buildings, imposing a certain formal autonomy in its affective relationship with the surrounding environment.The most chromatically and formally "heavy" building is in direct contact with a transitory, presently changing urban reality. The other smaller and lighter building is covered with white enamelled glass, constructing a parallel with the building to the north, in terms of building alignments, clearance, the cross-section, and using the same layout platform.
