In Gijón, the new local police headquarters stands out with an architectural style that is both understated and vibrant.

Set in a complex urban context along the railway lines, the building is a dominant vertical volume, punctuated by patios that encourage transparency and light while preserving the privacy required for a building of this nature.

Its 2,800m2 façade of perforated QUARTZ-ZINC® cassettes forms a light, ventilated veil.

Resistant to sea spray, this durable material captures the changing reflections of the sky, giving the institutional building a strong identity that blends subtly into the city’s maritime landscape.
