This court separates from the adjacent road, on a top level, for a wall staggered of concrete that allows to create some gardens and leads the dug upped water, that communicates the diverse orchards, and it´s taken up to a pond, producing a constant and relaxing sound that refreshes and recovers the essence of the original space.
