In response to the policy oriented towards the inclusion of health care institutions in the center of local neighborhoods, the CESFAM (Family Health Center) Salvador Allende is a strange apparition in the architectural context of La Pincoya. Its sinous volume made of translucid strips of glass hides its true function, and the interior transparency and luminosity (obtained through an inner court) associate the illness treatment with the lightness and purity that the building inspires.
