he building stands in an area characterized on one side by a sparse residential fabric and on the other by a green system intended as a sports park.
Externally, the structure presents an urban-facing frontage aligned with the residential fabric, marked by a base, a horizontal string course, a crowning cornice, and regularly sized openings.
On the shorter side, a gradual abstraction of the façade elements occurs, culminating in the elevation facing the green system, where small irregular openings dematerialize the façade—except for one large selective opening oriented towards two symbolic landmarks of the community: the bell tower and the chimney.
Inside, zenithal light coming from the north ensures uniform illumination of the space, while the openings along the longitudinal sides are shielded with polycarbonate walls that filter out direct sunlight from the playing field.
