Text description provided by the architects. Operating mechanism
The extension, apparently intended for an athletic program must be able to become a mechanism that can absorb a much wider range program. Simultaneously, Tàrrega becomes a strong cultural demand, and emphasizing the theatrical tradition. The piece will become a device which can be work depending on what you want to do. A sliding door and a curtain to allow for external performance, a stage without background allows cultural performances, acoustic ceilings and curtains condition the space for lectures and as an small auditorium, outdoor light and a soft ground as the sports area .... The combination of few mechanisms allows voluntary configuration of the user.

A space for circulation is open to the great hall, and makes the filter with the most closed activities, such as bathrooms, changing rooms, showers, facilities...
Self-organizing playgrounds
The outside reply given by the volume, is determined by the specific function of each playground. An entrance and teachers courtyard, a pine forest, a vegetable garden, a hard pavement for most organized sports, a playground of sand for vague and simultaneous games, a patio for smokers and who make sharing with the people on the street... Every patio, is an entity and distinct features, and expansion is in a gap between two of these playgrounds. As a piece that breaks off and emphasizes the value and autonomy of each yard.
Each facade of the new building reacts differently depends in space to live with.
