Its glass construction allows maintaining the spatial sequence so characteristic of the structural system of that time. The scratched treatment of the walls avoided the long and expensive process of repairing and smoothing them, in addition to enhancing the verticality of its high ceilings and providing a lot of character. The combination of stainless steel, granite and the rough finish of the walls unite the company’s innovative philosophy with the traditional and historical character of Madrid’s old town.
