Hotel Alma

Zara Live emerges from the fusion of Zara Home’s contemporary sensibility and Madrid’s artisanal heritage. The hotel draws inspiration from the Royal Tapestry Factory, a symbol of craftsmanship and timeless beauty. Not only are noble materials and natural textures revived, but the hotel’s very spatial and conceptual structure is built around a fundamental principle: THE WEFT AND THE WARP.

Interior design project for the conversion of a former garage into a coworking space. The project is tailored to meet the needs of different student profiles, offering specific areas designed for each of them.

It all begins with the purpose and function of the environment, the space, and our relationship as human beings with a specific setting. This environment can be shared with others or exist outdoors, in nature—surrounded by mountains or the sea, for example. However, it can also be a space of brick and concrete or plaster and metal. In this case, the focus is exclusively on the latter type of space: the “container.” Considering the importance of the container, this thesis employs a multisensory design for people undergoing rehabilitation, demonstrating that such a space can have a healing and liberating effect on them.
