Nijar is a small Andalusian town near Almeria. Its Arab history is still evident in the steep, winding lanes and the white, mostly singlestorey houses with patios and internal spaces that are decorated with coloured tiling in many cases. The architects won the ideas competition for the new theatre as early as 1998. It is situated on the edge of the town at the foot of a hill. Only on the lowest floor are the layouts of the two offset volumes linked. At this level, there is an exhibition space for modern art and one for installations.
