It is a listed housing building consisting of a basement, ground floor and four upper floors. It originates from the 17th century and was formed by the aggregation of four different structural units that were unified around 1853.

It is a typical example of neoclassical architecture as seen in the composition of the main façade, with balconies decreasing in height, made with stone slabs and wrought iron railings.

The rear façade, from the 18th century, has two series of arches. The lower semicircular and very high ones help to overcome the uneven ground and provide light to the ground floor and basement, while the upper ones form a beautiful gallery of lowered arches, with hanging capitals.

FUNCTIONAL PROGRAM

The object of the project is the structural consolidation of the building and its interior redistribution.

The lower floors house a space for offices, while on the three upper floors there are a total of fourteen homes for the elderly and community services located on the fourth floor.

The main access to the building is via the ground floor of the façade facing the Plaza Mayor.

The vertical communication of the building is carried out through a new core formed by a staircase and an accessible elevator located on the main façade. A second elevator connects the underground, ground and fourth floors, allowing direct access to the patio from the community services on the fourth floor.

The staircase located in the central patio that connects the ground, mezzanine and first floors remains.

ENERGY STRATEGY

The building achieves an A energy classification through the following strategies:

•       Use of thermal insulation throughout the entire envelope.

•       Efficient air conditioning system, completely electric using aerothermal energy.

•       Ventilation controlled by a heat recovery that allows you to always have fresh air, reducing energy consumption.

•       LED lighting
