The project involved the renovation of an early 20th-century building between party walls, listed under File 25 (Nuevos Riegos El Progreso) and structurally protected, to adapt its interior for contemporary administrative use. The work was limited to the redistribution of the ground and first floors (175.35 m² usable space), the renovation of finishes, and the restoration of unique elements, while preserving the building envelope, the protected façades, and the configuration of the central courtyard.
The proposal organizes offices, meeting rooms, circulation areas, and services using lightweight dry partition systems on metal framing, with a mineral wool insulation cavity to improve acoustic and thermal comfort without altering the original structure. Reversibility of the interventions and minimal intervention on protected elements are prioritized, ensuring that the new solutions can be removed without damaging the existing structure.
The finishes combine reclaimed materials and contemporary solutions: solid herringbone wood flooring, reclaimed hydraulic tiles, ceramic wall coverings in wet areas, and epoxy mortar and fiberglass mesh treatments for walls, finished with potassium silicate paint. Moldings and false ceilings are restored where appropriate, and woodwork is repaired, replacing translucent glass with high-performance Climalit glazing where it improves performance without compromising the building's historical character.
The intervention respects the planning regulations and the entry in the Municipal Catalogue: the façade on Empedrat Street is preserved in its original composition and materials, and any work on the façade facing Plaza de la Constitución is integrated while respecting the alignment and current urban planning regulations. The interior works do not affect the protected elements and aim to reconcile heritage preservation with current functional and comfort requirements.
The result is a sensitive adaptation that preserves the building's historical value and provides it with contemporary conditions of use, comfort, and durability.
