Their most recent project

Espai Formica®

(Barcelona) is a collaborative academic/professional project, developed between Elisava Barcelona School of Design and Engineering,  and Rhode Island School of Design (RISD) for Formica Group. The project is an ephemeral architectural intervention to reactivate one of the warehouses within the Nau Bostik complex in a new decapitalized, non-hierarchical and inclusive space for the community.
