2019年初，通过城市改善计划，SEDATU与墨西哥国立自治大学建筑学院合作，呼吁学者和从业者团体在该国北部边境地区城市和社会高度落后的地方开发公共设施。作为这个号召的项目的一部分，在有限的预算和时间表下，为位于下加利福尼亚州蒂华纳市Colonia Santa Fe II的一个未被充分利用的地点开发了一个文化和体育中心的提案。
At the beginning of 2019 and through the Urban Improvement Program, SEDATU in collaboration with the Faculty of Architecture UNAM called for groups of academics and practitioners to develop public facilities in locations with a high degree of urban and social backwardness, in border regions of the northern part of the country. As part of the projects of this call and solved with a limited budget and schedule, the proposal was developed for a Cultural and Sports Center located on an underutilized site in Colonia Santa Fe II, in Tijuana, Baja California.
主体建筑被隐藏在场地的北部，以实现一系列的绿色空间和灵活使用的小广场，它们随着土地的自然坡度上升。中心部分，即文化中心，是通过一个圆形元素来解决的，该元素容纳了覆盖的建筑项目：在一楼的服务、行政和护理，以及在上层的灵活使用空间，用于车间、会议和课程。
The main building is tucked to the north within the site to achieve a series of green spaces and small squares of flexible use, which rise and follow the natural slope of the land. The central component, the cultural center, is resolved through a circular element that houses the covered architectural project: on the first-floor services, administration, and nursing, and on the upper floor flexible use spaces for workshops, conferences, meetings, and classes.
建筑物的中心被开发为一个露天论坛，允许多种用途，从概念上讲，建筑物的圆形代表了一个连续的元素，没有边界或限制，反对蒂华纳现实中的边界条件。该建筑在上层由双层生锈的管子覆盖，交替使用以减少阳光的照射和风的通过。在其内部立面，建议使用一系列覆盖着帆布的金属框架，这些框架是可拆卸的，允许城市艺术家的介入。提供了一个具有强烈存在感的大型画布，使当代城市的表达方式变得庄重。
The heart of the building is developed as an open-air forum that allows a multiplicity of appropriations, conceptually the circular shape of the building represents a continuous element, without borders or limits, opposing the border condition present in the reality of Tijuana. The building is covered on the upper floor by a double skin of rusted tubes that alternate to reduce the incidence of sunlight and the passage of wind. On its interior façade, a series of metal frames covered with canvas are proposed, which are removable and allow the intervention of urban artists. Providing a large canvas with a strong presence that dignifies contemporary urban expressions.
