Lovely! Great to see them using recycled materials. It would be great if they added trees, like others have mentioned. Or perhaps some pretty, colorful flowers?

To be fair Madrid is also a fairly cold city (around 0ºC-10ºC) in the winter and you might just freeze in the shade. The lack of shade might also be a knee-jerk reaction to the (by some people much hated) Barcelona tradition of “hard landscaping” with metal pergolas and such, which was very influential in Spain as well. Still I don’t really like this, and I don’t like that from the air it looks Burle Marx-ish but it doesn’t really play with differently coloured/textured plants like he did (but then again I guess this is a low budget, low maintenance kind of thing…)
