    Parish in Lezkairu (2011)

    The building takes an "L" form, as it differentiates two principal zones: the temple, which occupies one side of the "L", and the rooms and housings, that occupy the other side. Both areas coexist in a strong and unified image, capable of combining both scales and different uses in a building with own character and entity. Both areas come together in a covered atrium for the access. The temple wing is developed mainly in one level, except for the access space that gets a second level as it contains the choir.

    The first area houses rooms and offices needed for parochial use, where the influx of people takes place at punctual times, in many cases different from worship. Spaces for various uses, such as meetings, catechesis courses, courses for baptism or marriage, organizations meetings... are distributed around a courtyard that offers a close and friendly scale. Besides, this courtyard gives light to the housings. This way their presence is non-existent on the outside.

    The spaces for worship are contained in the second area. These spaces are the main nave, the chapel and the presbytery, and related to them there are the spaces of foyer, sacristy, confessionals, bathrooms, the access to the choir and the choir.

    The building access is made through an opened atrium connecting both areas, which serves as shelter from sun or rain.
