The construction of a office block for Carburos Metálicos, in the Méndez Vigo Passage- Aragón Street- Lauria Street of the Ensache, implied the complexity of a property that has two identities; the one corresponding to the streets and the one referred to the Passageway.

 

 

The project solves the question of the different adjacent levels, harmonically articulating the building volume in a display of prisms that gyrate and loose height, giving explanation to the various urban sequences in which the building participates.

 

 

In relation to these sequences the facet of the prisms sides are decided: the sides that form the façade alignment constitute a morphologic interpretation of the classical Ensache in their composition and treatment; the sides that cut the alignment have a background presence and are totally glassed surfaces.
