The centre is home to children with mental health conditions and social integration difficulties. It is located in an annex building to the Valldonzella monastery, a historical neo-Gothic building in Barcelona. Each room is identified with one of the architectonic shapes of the building. Every three rooms share an apartment, to which a colour is assigned.
The identities of every room join together in public spaces, like the hallways, the classrooms or the playground. Thus, the space fosters a debate about what is individual and what is collective, and highlights the importance of sharing and living together.
