Elastiko in partnership with Forgas arquitectes was awarded first place in an open competition commissioned by the Generalitat of Catalonia for the complete refurbishment of a twelve storey office building located in Barcelona city centre. The building will accommodate the future Generalitat Department of Health and the aim is to make it, in accordance with the competition brief, a touchstone for new ways of working already in practice in contemporary society. The project will maximise flexible work spaces and collaborations, with particular attention to the wellbeing of workers and aims to convert the entire building into a contemporary and modern reflection of public administration, open to the wider general public and at the service of its citizens.
