Vigo University Campus

The vitality of each faculty of Vigo University made it necessary to redefine what the qualities of this place must be and how they are to be projected in the future. The architects proposed to work in two apparently opposing directions, because they will permit an appreciation of the the qualities that already exist in this place, i.e. emphasizing the natural features: a magnificent location, the small inland valleys, the topography. The task required co-ordination between the different operations already under way: a new access ring road, car parks, extensions to each faculty, integrated services, reforestation, a global proposal for the waste water collector, etc. (text from architect's website).
