A rectangular prism has been attached to the former two-storey building. This prism is raised to the first floor to allow the access of the vehicles involved in the industrial process. The ground floor has been designed for entry and customer service, and hosts the main meeting rooms. The upper floor is the working area and hosts the different departments and offices.

The different areas have been divided by means of glass panels that allow the spreading of the light that comes from the courtyards.

Wrapped by a minimal geometrical pattern, they achieve a higher degree of privacy without compromising the feeling of spaciousness.

The glass envelope, with a marked horizontal cut, generates this idea of unity, abstracting the diversity of interior spaces without giving up easily to express the daily activity of the offices.

Natural light penetrates through the wide glass facade and interior patios extending through space and amplifying its magnitude thanks to the palette of black and white tones that predominates in the construction.
