Marta Pelegrín and Fernando Pérez, founders of MEDIOMUNDO arquitectos, have been awarded second prize, in collaboration with FISCHER Architekten, in the international competition for the design of a new residential complex, kindergarten, and green spaces in the Rosenthal district of Stuttgart.
MEDIOMUNDO’s proposal is conceived as “a gathering in the park”, arranging the buildings around a sloping garden facing the future Gleisbogen Park, a green space to be created over the former railway tracks. The design encourages the formation of small neighbourhood communities and strengthens the identity of the area, integrating facilities, green spaces, and the reuse of existing buildings.
The project minimises land occupation and optimises sunlight, opting for low-rise buildings with a mixed concrete and timber structure, prefabricated modular façades, terraces, and landscaped penthouses. This hybrid arrangement of residential, educational, and recreational uses lays the foundations for a new urban identity in Rosenthal, in line with MEDIOMUNDO arquitectos’ commitment to sustainability, innovation, and quality of life in the contemporary city.
