The Diputacion de Malaga as an institution represents the province through a corporation and a "mini-parliament". At the same time, it is responsible for providing support to the various towns in a wide range of areas and therefore requires working space for the provincial operational services. As a public place where citizens' problems are debated and given practical solutions, the building must be read in a simple way, be appreciated in a close and transparent way, where the boundaries of ownership are diluted in favour of spaces that evolve from less to more privacy.

The complex aims to establish a large outdoor space in the form of a square that gives rise to different sequences of approaches to the workspaces. At the same time, the inclusion of scenic, exhibition and cultural spaces can bring the building closer to the citizen and enhance its public character. The old Civic Centre building, formerly the Hospital de la Sangre and Casa de la Misericordia next to the beaches of the same name, is the main reference point for the project of the new headquarters of the Diputación de Malaga.

The new building is conceived as a horizontal solution permeable to its surroundings, suitable for enhancing the value of the historic building currently lost among buildings of poor architectural quality, while seeking to maintain the references of the site both inside and outside the plot. The building is made up of two large volumes, the first for institutional offices, such as the presidency, political groups, the secretariat and the plenary hall, and the second aligned perpendicularly to the coast, which houses all the services and areas of a technical and administrative nature that currently make up the Provincial Council.
