The proposal for the Mixed Control Station seeks to combine several key features for conservation and environmental monitoring, in addition to facing three main challenges: adapting to the changing conditions of each Bioregion, meet the needs of protecting and monitoring the National Parks and Natural Monuments and finally allow independent performance of the Rangers Station and National Guard according to sustainability criteria. In this sense the control station proposed called Cubo Inparques, features a flexible design that can be adapted both in its composition and in its materiality to the different climatic and topographical conditions in the regions of Venezuela's diversity, without losing identity and spatiality of the original structure, becoming a symbol for the institution.
