The intervention focused on the concepts of functionality, comfort, operability and simplicity.
The building is intended for a fire station, which fits the surroundings in the most appropriate way, being enclosed by a green area and with paved outdoor areas for vehicle access. It consists of two pavilions with two floors interconnected by an outdoor covered area for the passage of rescue vehicles.
The operational pavilion includes on the ground floor the covered car park associated with a workshop/wash area, changing rooms, the control room, a lounge area with a support pantry, and on the upper floor are the rooms associated with the laundry treatment area.
The presidential pavilion has the noble hall, on the ground floor, and the administrative space, which is distributed over the two floors. This pavilion also houses the archives and the medical office.
