‘social services center’ by dosmasunoarquitectos, mostoles, madrid, spainphoto Miguel de Guzman

madrid-based dosmasunoarquitectos have recently completed the ‘social services center’, a community building in móstoles, an area outside the city of madrid, spain. presenting minimal restraints as the immediate surroundings are currently being developed, the structure is oriented to primarily address environmental issues and also respond to its future neighbors. using traditional methods instead of technology driven systems, the placement of programmatic spaces and internal circulation creates a compact interior volume which minimizes maintenance.

using the maximum area for the site extents, the exterior is lightened by removing cubic masses which reveal green-hued faces, producing open and outdoor areas for resting and waiting which interconnect the different levels.
