Nou Canadenca.
A major goal of the studio project is to provide a dense residential component as a means to answer Barcelona's affordable housing crisis, as well as to develop supporting commercial and public amenities to bring life into the site.
Nou Canadenca reimagines the site as a vibrant community that revitalizes the former built environment while densifying and integrating affordable housing. The concept of the project is based on the site’s historical roots of La Canadenca, which is the idea of fuel, generator and energy.
