<br/><br/> Daniel Modòl urbanism+architecture transformed the former Balius hardware store, which served the Poblenou neighborhood of Barcelona for a century, into a coworking space designed following criteria of sustainability, energy saving and user comfort, earning it the LEED Gold certification. The intervention preserves the elements that defined the industrial character of the building, complementing them with noble and locally sourced materials. LOOM Ferretería, with a net floor area of 1,756 m2, provides quality workspaces in the 22@ district and connects with its surroundings through a wooden façade planted with greenery that gives it warmth and distinguishes it from other office buildings in Barcelona.
