Tapiès foundation - Spain

The Tàpies foundation has just reopened its doors following extensive renovations lasting two years .
The renovation works sympathetically brought out the original style of the building, which was built in 1879 by the architect Lluis Doménech i Montaner.

Restored and decorated by the architects Roser Amad ó and Lluís Domènech Girbau, the space  offers a soothing oasis in the middle of a  vibrant  noisy city.

The Barrisol Lumière ceiling, which overhangs a row of iron columns, is part of the skillful mixture of industrial and contemporary styles.
