The design idea, by YLAB Arquitectos Barcelona, consists of three large central volumes placed in the center of the space, allowing for an open space all around. These elements, with their curved and sculptural shapes, allocate the functions that need a bigger area, and hide the vertical nuclei and the auxiliary spaces. The closed offices are placed along the facades and use glass partitions to give them a lighter look and let the light flow in. As a result, the rest of the floor is a free flow open space full of natural light.

这个设计理念是由巴塞罗纳的Ylab ArquArchtos设计的，由三个大的中央卷组成，它们都放在空间的中心，允许周围的空间都是开放的。这些元素，以其弯曲和雕塑的形状，分配需要更大面积的功能，并隐藏垂直核和辅助空间。关闭的办公室沿正面放置，并使用玻璃隔板，使他们看上去更轻，让光线流入。因此，其余的地板是一个自由流动的开放空间，充满了自然的光。

The material palette reinforces the spatial concept, using the ivory white and natural tinted elm wood as its base. The polished Capri natural limestone fits in with its warm shade, while multiplying the natural ambient light and amplifying the height of the floor. The closed volumes are covered with satin white lacquer and feature an indirect led light where the walls meet the ceiling and the floor. Singular spaces, such as the excavated accesses or the slats that protect the voids, are covered with natural wood. Also the conference hall core is covered with wood, occasionally forming furniture pieces at its external face. Graphite colored accents are added to special pieces like the reception desk, the office partitions or the cafeteria furniture.

材料的调色板加强了空间概念，以象牙白色和自然色榆木为基础。抛光的卡普里天然石灰石适合其温暖的阴影，同时倍增自然环境的光和放大的高度的地板。封闭的体积用缎白漆覆盖，并有一个间接的LED灯，在那里墙壁与天花板和地板相接。奇异的空间，如挖出的通道或保护空洞的石板，都被天然木材覆盖。此外，会议厅的核心是用木头覆盖，偶尔在它的外部形成家具碎片。石墨色的口音被添加到特殊的项目，如前台，办公室隔间或自助餐厅的家具。
