Japanese architect Toyo Ito and b720 Arquitectos of Spain have completed two adjacent towers in Barcelona containing a hotel and offices. 

Called Porta Fira Towers, the two buildings are linked by a common atrium.

The hotel is contained in a distorted cylinder, expanding towards the top and clad in red metal panels.

The office building is a rectangular volume with a glass curtain wall and red motif running through the centre.

Photographs are by Filippo Poli.

Here’s some more information from b720 Arquitectos:


Porta Fira Towers

 

Hotel and offices building in the Plaza Europa. Barcelona

Designed by the Japanese architect Toyo Ito and b720 Arquitectos, lead by Fermin Vázquez, the uniqueness of the large architectural project proposed has as one of its priorities to respond to the environment and exploit its strategic position. Located between the airport and the city of Barcelona, the Porta Fira Towers intend to become the gateway to l’Hospitalet de Llobregat and the city of Barcelona.

The project consists of two towers that perform a subtle dialogue between them. The hotel (PB +25), is designed to turn on itself changing its perception as it is surrounded. Its skin is made of a system of red metal tubes placed with a certain inclination. This perception is complemented by the second tower, which will house offices (PB+22). A pure volume at the first sight, with a glass curtain wall, but the core of which also turns red on itself, becoming, in this way, a reflection of the hotel tower. Between the two towers, and connecting it, there is a common atrium.

Its unique appearance, along with its 110 meters in height and the total gross floor area of 80,108 m2 of the two towers, turned the project into one of the new milestones in the new Plaza Europa, in the town of L’Hospitalet de Llobregat and a clear reference in the Barcelona’s skyline.
