La Spain Square in Vinarós It is a space with great potential given its proximity to the port, one of the main tourist attractions of the municipality. The square has a large area of ​​hard pavement without vegetation that lacked shaded areas. In this context, the City Council decided to make a climate adaptation of the space by installing pergolas, seats and planters to make Plaza España a more pleasant place for citizens.

For this performance in URBADIS we have manufactured and installed nine model pergolas perhexa with benches at different heights, which lends playfulness, uniqueness, and character to the composition. This pergola is self-supporting thanks to its deck as a base, so it doesn't require a foundation. To complete the area, we also built three planters that will provide vegetation to the plaza. Bioclimatic shelters are essential for improving the quality and livability of the space. Our shelters not only provide shade, they also promote a meeting and relaxation space for the municipality's residents.

At UBADIS | microarchitecture we are constantly working on developing new climate shelters that generate new areas of enjoyment and well-being for citizens. Our mission is to improve urban spaces by designing and manufacturing unique street furniture adapted to each situation and location.
