Materials:

Nothing has been left a chance in the selection of the materials; the finest and those of the best quality have been chosen.

Its outer walls, built from reinforced concrete, have been installed vertically and obliquely to a depth of 22 metres. Once raised, their shapes have been dressed with natural stone from the quarries of Salamanca.

After compacting the different levels, the foundation of the building is seated on a concrete base reinforced with metal grid, reaching a thickness of 75 centimetres. The structure is erected on top of this solid base, also reinforced concrete in its entirety.

At this point the design, development, manufacture and installation of each one of the elements has been realised taking meticulous care in every detail. There is only one way to build with these highest standards; with expert craftsmanship.
