Throughout history, the symbolic character of Judicial Architecture has been maintained, reflecting sober and anonymous constructions. A strong symbolism that should not be at odds with concepts such as the integration of the building in the environment, the recognition of its integration in an urban fabric, and the quality of the urban space that it can generate.

In the proposal, two clearly differentiated public spaces were designed, linked to each other, surrounding the building by means of a continuous band of vehicular and pedestrian access containing the parking areas. The first is the access and entrance to the plot, clearly showing the scale and public identification of the building. A wooded area, which we call the chromatic garden, supports and offers the necessary shade at this point, with the provision of a platform for the occasional descent of passengers, a cab rank, and a public transport shelter. The second, which we call the built garden, was defined by a large space and wooded courtyard, which was designed to ensure a better quality of views from the inside. Combining species with different flowering periods in order to emphasize their mutability, it thus redounded to a certain idea of lightness in the face of the strong presence of the existing architecture.

The proposed structure flexibly allowed the adoption of different work organizations. Its bay width guaranteed the entry of natural light through any of the facades, avoiding dark areas that demanded artificial light consumption during daylight hours. Light levels of between 6.00 and 7.80 m allowed the structure to be designed in an economical manner that was compatible with the different configurations of work spaces. A 1.30 m base module allowed adaptation to standardized construction elements. Within this serialization, the different modulated facades were designed with different degrees of permeability.
