Prior to the construction of the current Turó de la Peira Sports Center, there was an obsolete swimming pool and sports court nestled between buildings, with a hard environment of pavements and concrete. These two sports facilities were concentrated in a single building with a heated swimming pool on the ground floor and a sports court on the upper floor. This freed up space for the construction of an island interior garden with native vegetation and permeable soil. It has opted for energy efficiency and self-sufficiency with passive architecture, skylights and windows, monitored with sensors that ensure ventilation and natural lighting. Being semi-underground minimizes the surface area of ​​the façade and avoids heat loss. The insulation adapts to the orientation. The building has an aerothermal system to produce hot water. Lighting has power regulation systems based on natural lighting. The entire roof is covered by photovoltaic panels that will generate 90% of the energy needed in the building. Laminated wood structure has been used to reduce the ecological footprint. A hydroponic green gallery surrounds the building and reduces solar radiation on three of its facades. Rainwater collected in a tank in the basement covers the irrigation needs of the green facade.
