Project published in Hybrids III. Residential Mixed-use buildings
This building stands behind Montjuic, in Barcelona’s Zona Franca, a large extension of industrial land which is being newly promoted with the relocation of part of the Fira de Barcelona (fairs and conventions) and the construction of new office buildings. The project, housing for young people, occupies a narrow lot in the La Marina sector and includes a primary school and an occupational centre on the ground floor to provide service to the neighbourhood. Above flats are distributed on both sides of a long corridor brought to life with common spaces, terraces and open spaces.
The project also uses a wide variety of sustainable practices: a construction system using moulds, adjustable louvers on the facade, energy collection methods and energy generation systems.
