His principles
- flexibility in varying the appearance of his works
based on their differing contexts is reflected in the

historical tradition.

The material
The material used for the exterior of the
building is brick and a sandstone typical of the
Region of Murcia.
Moneo thought about a musical score for the order of the columns, and
about a glass balcony to break the symmetry, and from which the mayor
could appear to the city.
