Colgando del Centro is the result of a public competition called by Madrid City Council (Madrid Destino) in order to adapt the existing Operations Court of Cibeles Palace as a new public space for the city of Madrid. The historical context in which the project was to be carried out conditioned the character of the intervention, proposing a reversible action, without affecting any original structural element In addition, it is mainly a mobile construction, so it would be possible to hide its main elements and furniture when necessary, thus creating a slight modification on the current morphology of the Operations Courtyard.

The goal of the project is to intensify the reception, information and participation functions through a new zoning strategy that clarifies the interior organization of the Courtyard. In order to implement this design strategy, new furniture pieces and hanging structures that illuminate, multiply the versatility of the space and facilitate the exchange of information were included.
