Standing on the ground surrounded by orange trees after touching them, it only occurs to me to be able to rise in the air and appreciate the treetops, see the birds a little closer and feel the breeze of the wind and the rays of the sun, in the same way I feel an intense desire to reflect the sky in the earth and that the earth becomes water to be able to immerse myself in it.
I swim through the extremes of the pool and I see around me orange trees that wrap me with their citrus scent, and I just feel RELIEF in my spirit.
I proposed to create a play space located in a field of orange trees in La Pobla LLarga Valencia, a place where water and air can coexist through architecture. Where the mind and body can find RELIEF.
The project emerges from the earth with two intertwined rectangular volumes, one on the surface and the other in the subsoil.
