The objective of the project is to improve the thermal and acoustic properties of the facade and execute the works within a very short time. This is achieved by moving the new carpentry toward the interior and the use of an industrialised shading facade system formed by modular UHPC pieces with horizontal slats in a thickness of just 4 cm to reduce insolation, without having to use scaffolds and permitting a relatively rapid installation with the crane from outside the building. The stone-like appearance of the finish enables a chromatic and textural integration with the urban district of the Eixample in Barcelona.
