The project is located in the Natural Park of Peña Cabarga, in an area of great visual exposure. A place frequented by tourists for its scenic views.

Therefore, the proposal remains the iconic power of the existing building and set all the necessary auxiliary constructions for its conversion into a TV tower, in a semi-buried construction placed at his feet. At the same time, this strategy takes advantage of the existing topography and creates a garden on the slope, as a new open area and a viewpoint.
