贝纳文特(西班牙)新的阿尔茨海默病患者日间护理中心源于该地区人口的老龄化。在设计时，尽管近年来该病在国内一些地区有所增长，但这种类型学还没有成熟的方案。因此，最初的方案只规定了包含认知和身体刺激活动的空间，并为五十名用户提供餐饮和休息区。因此，首要任务是理解这种类型学的逻辑，并将其具体化为建筑方案。

The new Day Care Center for People with Alzheimer’s Disease in Benavente (Spain) arises from the aging of the region’s population. When designed, there was no proven scheme for this typology, despite the growth of the disease in recent years in some regions of the country. Hence, the initial program only specified the inclusion of spaces for cognitive and physical stimulation activities, with dining and rest areas for fifty users. Therefore, the first task was to understand the logic of this typology and crystallize it into an architectural scheme.

另一个重要的出发点是该中心的位置在一个双重边界的情况下（领土和城市）。一方面，该镇位于卡斯蒂利亚大高原的外围，所以它具有特殊的地形：在丘陵、山谷和平原之间，具有穿越道路的历史条件，以及一些国家的主要干道。另一方面，该地块也位于市政边界区域内，位于拓展区与农田之间的山坡上，坡度较陡。这种情况又强调了建筑中景观的结合。

Another important starting point was the Center’s location within a double boundary situation (territorial and urban). On the one hand, the town is located on the periphery of the great Castilian plateau, so it is endowed with a particular topography: between hills, valleys and plains, with a historical condition of crossing roads, and some of the main arterial roads of the country. On the other hand, the plot is also located within a municipal boundary area, on a hill with a steep slope between an expansion area and farmland. This situation emphasizes the conjunction of landscapes in the building again.

这些想法促使建筑定位在地块的上部，以利于它的一个地层旋转和撕裂坡面，形成一个新的平原区域。然后，在第二个运动中，该地层的一部分又垂直上升了一层，以保护建筑在其城市正面。这样，一条新的地平线就被创造出来了，它是建筑的主体，它不仅象征着社区在面对这种疾病时的协同作用，而且还与景观进行了对话。

These ideas motivated the positioning of the building in the upper part of the plot to facilitate a stratum of it to rotate and tear the slope to create a new plain area. Then, in a second movement, part of that stratum rises another level vertically to protect the building on its urban front. Thus, a new line of the horizon is created, the main subject of the building, which not only symbolizes the synergy of the community in the face of this disease but also dialogues with the landscape.

一旦进入地表，新出现的地层就会被挖掘出来，容纳不同的空间。这些空间根据其私密性和使用程度被划分为四个区域。两个大型的挡土墙向外延伸，作为入口的标志，并将公共空间（区分为行政和多功能区域）与私人空间分开。同时，私人空间围绕着两条宽度很大的走廊，它们的多样性有助于在空间上引导游客。从这两条走廊中的每一条，都可以进入其余的私人空间。其中一个提供了最经常使用的通道。因此，它的设计有一个清晰而响亮的方案，优化了建筑的操作，使不同区域的使用简单、同时和独立，并最大限度地利用其能源资源。

Once on the surface, the emerging stratum is excavated to house the different spaces. These are divided into four zones according to their degrees of privacy and use. Two large retaining walls extend outwards to mark the entrance and separate the public spaces (differentiated as administrative and multipurpose areas) from the private ones. At the same time, the latter is articulated around two corridors of great width, their diversity assists in spatially orienting visitors. From each of them, the rest of the private spaces can be accessed. One provides access to the most frequently use. Thus, it is designed with a clear and resounding scheme that optimizes the operation of the building, allowing for simple, simultaneous and independent use of the different areas and a maximized use of its energy resources.

地块的其余部分（二期开发）是一个大型的两层花园。然而，由于两者在概念上的共同渊源，两者是一起构思的，上层花园在屋顶绿化和蓄水的基础上自我延伸。因此，建筑在形式上和物质上都与景观相关。这个区域被设想为中心最大的房间，因为它鼓励户外活动，并保证使用者与外部和他们记忆中的景观直接接触。

The rest of the plot (developing in a second phase) is a large two-level garden. However, both are conceived together due to their common conceptual origin, and the upper garden extends itself over the green roof and water storage. Hence, the building is related to the landscape both formally and materially. This area is conceived as the largest room in the Center, as it encourages outdoor activities and assures users direct contact with the outside and the landscape of their memory
