In the center of the city and the Eixample District, on the commercial axis of Paseo de Gracia, the new corporate headquarters of Carner Barcelona is designed. It is located in a building that preserves its original and typical construction elements of the Catalan architecture. The sobriety and authenticity of the designed spaces allow the values and philosophy of the brand to emerge. It is contextualized in the Mediterranean and local crafts. Likewise, the resulting homogeneous white color makes the product stand out. All the factory walls and solid brick roof vaults are whitewashed, stripping off any previous cladding. They remain visible, with their patinas, marks and wounds that allow a historical reading. A unique finishing material in the enclosure is combined with flooring, doors and furniture made of pine wood and white steel for carpentry. For the exhibition spaces, the furniture has been designed in a way that serves both for exhibition and storage. It has a careful lighting and a triple function of lighting for the packaging / corporate image, the different flasks on display and the surrounding space. Slots to hide porcelain tasters were incorporated into the display shelf. The lighting in the premises has been designed in such a way that it is not present. In this way everything is well lit, emphasizing where appropriate to revalue the spaces and to display the product, which takes center stage in the exhibition area.
