Centro AMADIP, designed by Juan Alba and Ester Morro, is a cooking school and cafe in Calvià, run by a foundation dedicated to people with intellectual disabilities.

The Palmanova center arose from the idea of ​​giving such people training in cooking and running the cafe, working together in a professional occupation.

The light-filled, tranquil setting is conducive to a peaceful life for its clients.

Its generous and simple clean lines create an atmosphere of reliability and consistency, where they can live together in harmony over an extended period of time.

You can almost smell the calming lavender peacefully growing in the well tended beds.

Sited in Spain’s sunbaked Mallorca region, the site gets abundant sunshine.

In this gentle space, people with intellectual disabilities should feel free.

A huge central courtyard supplies an always-there square central cutout offering up Spain’s always blue skies.

Centro Amadip is on the edge of a crowded tourist area, with a good source of potential customers.

Offering the tourists respite from the ever-present sun, cool outdoor seating is shaded by a copious black canopy set by rich wooden frames.

The center provides the relief of a tranquil cafe for a leisurely bite in the afternoon.
