Situated by the beach of Barcelona, the site, preserved since the 1800s, features a complex layout reminiscent of a medie-val town. Inspired by this unique spatial quality, the design reimagines the brewery as an active food village where architecture and community intertwine, informed by the village concept to create spaces for dynamic interactions and food-centric activities. The project introduces a diverse array of spaces, including a food market, rooftop gardens, a museum, a food academy, and an event hall. Streets and squares will come alive with global street food kiosks and music stages, fostering community and celebration. By naming streets and designing bespoke pavements, the project creates a map-like identity for the revitalised venue. The project celebrates Mercato Metropolitano's ethos of connecting people through food, while preserving the historical essence of the site through unique architectural interventions developed through dialogues between time and space. The project is slated to commence in 2025.
