The school is located in the outskirts of the city of Burgos, adopting the L-form inside a squared plot.
The new proposal extends the continuity of the existing form.The overall proposal closes with a U-form around the courtyard, and opens into the main street.
Continuity, versatility and communication are the key words of the proposal. A lightweight body that contains the stairs connects both parts.
