This book has been divided into three chapters: one covers facade finish materials, another on the idea of “double skins” and a third on interventions in a historic context. The first speaks of brick, plaster or stone; some of the materials we have used as finish material on our projects according to the context they were found. In the second case, the composition strategy is another: now we are not dealing with opening up a void in the wall. Here we add one layer atop an existing one. The third chapter is reference for all those who have had to work in a city as consolidated as Barcelona, consolidated in the fact that for every brand-new building raised in the city, there are 5 interior renovations or restorations, mostly caused by changes of use.
