Text description provided by the architects. The project commissioned was to dispose of an exhibition room and an office space in a narrow site adjacent to an existing building belonging to Millan’s art gallery.

An internal passage and a common esplanade were proposed to communicate the buildings, guaranteeing unity between them.

The concept was to locate the exhibition room on the ground floor and to conform the office as a mezzanine that does not touch the side walls so that the resulting double-height void enables natural light to enter the exposition through a pair of longitudinal skylights located on the roof. The exhibition wall next to the façade was conceived as a detachable panel, allowing excellent communication between the interior and exterior.

Cross section C

While the construction’s perimeter and its service core were built in masonry and concrete, the façade, mezzanine and roof were designed as light steel structures, most of which pre-assembled in factory, granting more agility at the construction site.
