Gallery: Green-roofed Public Restroom ...

 
The sitting area has concrete outdoor furniture designed as simple modernist cubes that provide space for people to eat or drink mate alfresco.

Seeking to provide a sustainable public building without interfering with the park´s everyday activities, the architects had to consider many things at once. The site is located within a public park called Urquiza, which is an important green spot in the city where people enjoy running, having picnics, playing with dogs, and romantic walks next to the river. The project is set on a sloping site within the park, and the design prompt called for an extension that expands upon of the existing building while keeping its independence.
