Underground

The Ritual



'A global project located in an utopic future neighborhood in Barcelona'

Underground is a project that allows a ritual of disconnection from the city, at the same time that it helps the inhabitants of a future utopic district from Barcelona reconnect with nature, specially with the sea and its water.

This wave-shaped space is located right on the sea shore, which ocults the ritual from the city view. Its architecture allows a major implication on the process of giving back to citizens the calm and tactility that they might not even know they long for. All sea sounds echo, and its breeze arrives at the space, all whilst its waves elegantly cover with a thin layer of water the estructure that lies underneath, where the most pure experience of the ritual takes place.

This way, the designed experience is there for all its patrons, so that they can enjoy it individualy and to the fullest. All spaces, being wide, contemplative and haptic, together with the underwater atmosfere that its surroundings bring, enhance the experience’s qualities, creating a unique and special ritual which treats gently its visitors from beginning to end.
