Sants Social Center / LAOS (Xavier Botet + Albert Saboya)

The rehabilitation project is based on the premise of placing people, the neighbourhood, activities, and social life at the centre of architecture. The proposal transforms a building originally constructed in 1950, deeply altered over time, into a contemporary, flexible, and sustainable facility capable of continuing to serve as an active meeting place without compromising its memory or urban identity.
