The new Cerdanya Hospital is currently located on the outskirts of the town of Puigcerdà within the new city planning which is characterized by its strong urbanization. The site is at an altitude of 1,200 m above sea level and the terrain has an important slope . The hospital building is located on the north side of the plot of land in order to obtain free space (approximately 10,000 m2 ) on the south facade of the building avoiding the shadow of 5 floor block of flats located front of the hospital. Our building helps to structure and define the new city area, formalizing the planned streets and creating square where trees have been planted. This green squeare is located right at the end of the urban promenade , and connects the current center of Puigcerda with the new projected extension.
