Adjustments to an urban square in Barcelona, with the aim to re-invigorate everyday life, social condition and self esteem of the inhabitants of the square and the workers in the market. The proposal includes a range of everyday facilities including a hairdressers (perruqueria), laundrette, cafes, flower market, and an area for market workers to wash and take a siesta. The focal point of the architecture is an intricate fabric canpoy, which veils the square - By playing with lighting effects and pattern, the design of the veil gives a new importance to the square; it trys to enhance the visual qualities of everday life, whilst functioning to shade the market stalls from the intense sun.
