Shop in the Sant Antoni Market in Barcelona

Another family story is what you can get when a Market Shop is the project. Here we find the Torres Family, working in the market since 1933. I have been working together with mother and son to find the perfect solution to their reclaims. They are great family respectful with their work.  

It has been an interesting work to participate in the design of that 14m façade shop in the refurbishment of Sant Antoni’s iconic market in Barcelona. The architectural refurbishment project was done by Revetllat Ribas architects in Barcelona..

The interesting aim of the project was a good selection of materials that evoke the nature of the olive trees and of the materials of the field. Materials regarding the environment and also into the ecofriendly philosophy that are also functional and hygienic as per the feeding use. Also has been important a final layout that organize the display of all materials, the dance between the workers inside the shop and provides a good customer service.
