The project consists of the
rehabilitation of the former guard’s house of the Can Ricart site in order to
transform it into a temporary residence for artists connected to Hangar.
This is a simple intervention that is
respectful to the existing building.
False ceilings, coatings and flooring
added throughout the life of the building are removed in order to regain its
original essence.
Long-lasting materials are used for
the intervention, which blend in with the existing ones and are barely
noticeable.
The visible metal staircase is the
only new element that contrasts with the imperfect materiality of the rest of
the space.
