This article presents the authors´ personal reflection on three large educational complexes from the revolutionary period in Camagüey. It is part of a description that used a structured methodology with a mixed-methods approach to understand and delve deeper into the design process and inherent characteristics of the three educational centers, and thus establish inferences about the correspondence between projects and reality. The results indicate the contribution of these complexes to the city: although created by means of prefabrication, within and of themselves they have overcome the persistent monotony of other educational facilities around the country and have achieved a formal and functional expression of high aesthetic value.
