Retrofitting Urban Memory: 3 Ximeneies by Marvel and GdSB

The Three Chimneys represent an icon of Catalonia’s industrial heritage that we aim to preserve and enhance through our proposal for the new Catalunya Media City. The project ultimately engages with the site’s social memory, transforming an infrastructure that once had a significant environmental and social impact into one that fosters the future of media collaboration. In doing so, it takes advantage of the existing structure and its embedded energy to envision new possible futures.
