Clay Brick Material as their identity The project is proposed as a community meeting
place that builds a public space around culture, in
recognition of the nature of agricultural landscapes,
traditions and of Lampa’s own social gathering.
That creates a square with an open courtyard char-
acter, which communicates the urban exterior life
with the interior culture space. A meeting place,
consisting of a curved wall of intercalated bricks,
which acts as a visual filter with the Cultural Center,
creating gardens and intermediate spaces that me-
diate both situations.

The materiality in clay brick, the white of the lime

and the natural stone rescue elements of the place
that recognize their identity.
The program, made from exhibition halls, work-
shops with courtyards and an auditorium as in the
end, is developed on the same level in order to inte-
grate into the urban context, provide fluidity to the
route and adapt to the human scale.

The courtyad become a places for welcoming the

visitors and then after that they go directly to any
places in this cultural center.
The indoor area such as workshop area, performing arts
area and visual arts area. The outdoor area is the social
gathering area.
