Avila Warehouse Conversion by Allaround Lab

Ávila is a challenge that reinterprets what was at first an open-program warehouse situated in the Poble Nou community of Barcelona to turn it into a 120 m2 multi-purposeful and habitable room. The proposal aims to carry out this transformation making use of what we connect with “the minimum amount suggests to inhabit a place”, namely, storage, humid spaces, and circulations, thinking of the whole free of charge quantity and not just it’s surface area.

From the arrangement of distinct construction items that articulate the various environments, and with the minimum amount important partitions, we get the job done and undertaking the void as the key ingredient of the proposal. Similarly, the distributor on the upper ground is proposed as a diagonal, sq.-shaped void that, regardless of the simplicity of the whole, enables cross visuals among all the rooms, together with the 1 on the rear façade from the staircase.

With the use of steady supplies and light-weight colours, the intention is to receive a brilliant, neutral, and heat location at the similar time, producing use of the home furnishings and integrating it from the commencing of the venture. The proposal values the place thanks to its simplicity, the distinct textures of the products, and the gentle, leaving aside any surplus or ornament and concentrating on gratifying the needs of its inhabitants.
