The embellishment of the urban landscape of the Spanish towns is an open subject in many of its regions. In the current project we experiment with the improvement of Piornal, located in the Jerte Valley, Extremadura, Spain. The town is mainly agricultural, whose main farming (planting) is cherry. Its climate is harsh. Its winters are long, plenty of snow and rainy springs as well as autumns. This weather, put together with the low buying power of its inhabitants, made them change their traditional architecture of the house coming from adobe wall or masonry to one quicker and easier to keep, combining load bearing wall of ceramic bricks structures and facades covered with undulating sheets made of aluminium or fibrocement which protect them from the cold and the humidity. The solution has turned out to be practical but at the expense of the original beauty giving a more industrial and incidental building nature which is in contrast with its natural appearance. This work tries to recover the town identity, its citizens, its habits, its festivities and its landscape, its natural environment and its streets where they live their working or leisure life trough the improvement of the appearance of the facades of their houses, now white and covered with plates, changing them into pieces of art. All the project long, the University of Seville provides the artistic creativity and the technical resources and the town council, the board and keep of the artists through the execution period of the artistic project.
