spanish studio maquespacio presents their latest project realized in an emblematic building from the end of the 19th century, situated in the historic center of valencia. designed for the law office zapata y herrera, the project adds to the firm’s corporate values by the use of colors black, grey and natural wood tones.

the original beams have been restored, making them an essential element of the spatial renovation. the small space is maximized using L-shaped tables positioned above the storage lockers, where three pillars from the entry garden repeat themselves. behind the reception, interns are found within an area dictating a sense of green space offered by a range of aloe vera plants. within the entrance of the boardroom, an arrangement of frames propose a metaphorical juxtapositon of the diplomas usually exposed in a law firm.
