We were asked to develop a mixed-use project on an industrial site located 3km from Madrid’s main city Park, El Retiro. For the office building we proposed maintaining part of the slabs and structure, whilst proposing a new façade around the whole perimeter. MADD’s proposal created two distinctive volumes: On the one hand, a square office building with a covered but translucent central atrium, and on the other hand a rectangular building where the dwellings are located. Both volumes are part of the same complex, yet also stand alone.

A staircase in the central atrium invites users to explore the space.

The design includes commercial units on the ground floor, offices in upper floors and a cafeteria on the terrace.
