其中一个地区有一个沥青法院，在没有遮阳和防晒、雨水和热量的情况下仍未被使用。目标是创造一个可居住的地区，重新激活法院及其周围的环境。

One of those areas had an asphalt court that remained underused for lack of shade and protection from sun, rain and heat. The goal was to create an inhabitable area to reactivate the court and its surroundings.

不只是屋顶

More than a roof

城市设施的缺乏使这个屋顶在最初的使用中得到了扩展，成为了一个多用途的门廊式的覆盖物。该节目，插入柱，包括阳台，游乐场，阅览室，活动室，浴室和家具，如看台，吊床和秋千，提供替代用途的结构。我们还整合了一个户外健身区、一个论坛和允许24小时使用空间的城市家具。在炎热的天气中，当地植被的加入使阴凉恢复了公共空间的一个基本要素。

The lack of urban amenities gave this roof an extended function to its initial use and became a multipurpose portico-style cover. The program, inserted between the columns, includes balconies, playgrounds, reading room, activity rooms, bathrooms and furniture like stands, hammocks and swings that give alternative uses to the structure. We also integrated an outdoor fitness area, a forum and urban furniture that allows round-the-clock use of the space. The incorporation of local vegetation recovers shade as an essential element of public spaces in hot weather.

 Axonometric

其结果是一种结构上可复制的模型，它响应于体育用途，但也适用于娱乐、教育、宗教和沉思用途。法院成为邻居的聚集地，作为一个社区中心，容纳多项活动。

The result is a structural replicable model that responds to sports-use but also to recreational, educational, religious and contemplative uses. The court becomes a meeting point for neighbors that works as a community center housing multiple activities.
