The requirement to preserve the interior space of the main warehouse of the Borrás factory and its facade on Carrer Dolors Granés are key factors in this project. We preserve a large part of the exterior envelope, although the construction of the consulting rooms, waiting rooms and associated courtyards requires more intense remodelling, including the partial demolition of the interior.
We propose renovating the part nearest to Carrer Balmes and organising the entrance through the space separating it from the street. We construct a new facade, preserving the interior space as a container for the offices that do not require compartmentalisation (foyer, reception and waiting room) and the larger public spaces (the healthcare training room and meeting room). We reserve the outer section for the smaller spaces that, due to their intended use, need to be more closed-off.
