Built, MV architectsExpansion of the Clinic, consisting of a double action. On the second floor, facing the inner courtyard of the block, there is an auditorium-room designed as a wooden box, whose roof is used as a terrace. On the top floor there is another extension consisting of a duplex-penthouse associated with the clinic.
Wood has been used as the predominant enclosure material, so that these bodies that are attached to the main building, dating from the early twentieth century, are shown to the outside without great prominence. The wood refers to a certain provisionality in contrast to the dominant presence of the thick masonry walls.
