Agricultural Community
The abandonment and acoustic problems existing in the neighborhood of Fuencarral led its inhabitants to launch an initiative that became a place of pilgrimage for all those who wanted to approach life in the city in a different way. The aim is to ensure that this small green island, lost in a sea of industry, becomes a reference point for coexistence in Madrid: The Agricultural Community for the Rehabilitation of Chronic Urbanites. This community space sets up a space for the reception of patients, who are put to the test, through spaces devoid of luxuries, additions and even almost intimacy. The work, discipline and coexistence make the community a space for reconnection with the agrarian world and, most importantly, with the living cycles that compose it.
