The design of this building specifically addresses all functional requirements required for such use whist keeping in mind that this project had to complement the typical surroundings of the area and its high visibility from Mdina. This project which is spread over an area of circa 3400m² houses the green roofed Animal Aftercare Centre, timber stables, green parking areas and indigenous landscaped areas. The green roof design was conceived in order to mitigate the visual impact of this building, complement the surrounding areas and obtain energy saving characteristics.
