A clean, simple and durable facade for the San Juan de Dios Centre in Ciempozuelos, Madrid

The new Antón Martín Psychogeriatric unit is located in the hospital complex of the Order of San Juan de Dios in Ciempozuelos, and the ULMA engineered stone Ventilated Façade was chosen for this building.

In this project, a total of 4500m2 of facade has been installed. Two textures and several colours have been chosen for the building's skin. On the main facade, overlooking the “Plaza de la Convivencia”, a bluish tone was chosen, and the vertical panel installation system has been used. Meanwhile, the horizontal system has been chosen for the rest of the building, in dimensions of 90x180 cm. For the rest of the facades, on the top part, the Air range has been used in a light shade, and for the base on which the building rests, the Water range has been chosen in a grey shade, with a corrugated texture installed vertically.
