The design is for the renovation of an existing textile factory, located in an industrial area 20 kilometers outside Barcelona.
The factory was built in 1974, for industrial use exclusively. At that time, the lack of digital technology in manufacturing, difficulties in urban and metropolitan mobility, as well as differences in labor conditions for workers required differentiated treatment of industrial production facilities and their complementary services.
