Project
Church square
Bagà / Spain, 2011
Description
Square and parking design tries to adapt to the site topography and to enhance visuals in a privileged natural environment of agricultural terraces. With this new public space, pedestrian circuits are redefined and the same time, the square creates a new relax space with a lot of play activities to realize at.
 
The unique built element is a wooden pergola on a side of square. It integrates parking access and lineal protected bench with visuals to south façade of St Esteve church. A big stone stair enhances the connection between church and square. Pergola sifts visuals between square and existing dwelling building, preserving inhabitants privacy.
