A few meters from its current headquarters in Granada, Red Cross decides to expand its facilities on the ground floor of a residential block.Red Cross on the street proposes a new way of understanding the relationship between the organization and society. Cardboard, recycled and recyclable, is introduced as a material capable of symbolizing the Red Cross's determined commitment to sustainable and environmentally conscious action.Made with renewable, biodegradable raw materials, and highly recyclable are displaced from their original purpose to contribute to the circular economy of the project.
