Barceloneta Market

Architects    : MiAS Arquitectes 
Location       : Barcelona, Spain
Area              : 5200.0 m2
Project Year : 2007

This market in the neighbourhood of la Barceloneta was one of the first covered markets built in Barcelona. It was built 1884 and was constructed with a metal structure. The building was partially destroyed by bombs during the Civil War. This recent remodeling is seen as a continuity of the old structure from 1884 and all the changes in this highly dense neighbourhood. The market seeks to form part of its urban fabric and Miàs’ project is a clear example of integration with the context. The open area in front of the market with its play ground and ping pong tables is helping the building to engage more with its urban fabric and neighbouring buildings.
