FOCUS.peripheral.


Our studio site situates itself in the midst of contrasting surroundings. To one side, the historic and iconic Montjuic provides an amazing aerial view of its layout. From the bridge, an up close and personal look at the portion below. From the cruise line docks, a vivid perspective on the entire panorama. In the transition between these views, individual sections of the site come into primary focus, while shear distance and sight obstructions force other pieces into the periphery. This ephemerality in the visual realm will play a large part in the potential impact our projects can have on the surroundings in addition to Barcelona as a whole.
