WHO WE ARE Onl, arquitectura is the continuation of the architectural firm established by Joan Nogué and Txema Onzain in 1988, and which Félix López joined in 2007 as a new partner. We are a multidisciplinary team that provides comprehensive, customised services in the areas of architecture, restoration, urban spaces, and interior design. Our team is made up of 15 professionals, supported by architectural students and a stable network of external collaborators who specialise in different disciplines such as the calculation of structures and installations, sustainability and energy efficiency, heritage and restoration, landscaping and urban design. We like to create architecture which is based on the user’s needs, because people are at the heart of our projects. We think that equilibrium between form, function, and technology is the cornerstone of good architecture. The practice of architecture gives rise to a poetic discourse based on the never-ending search for what is possible. For this reason we are interested in ideas whose emotional and logical intensity helps us to capture sensations and stimuli, rather than whimsical and fantastical architectural visions.

The project has a big restoration work composed by three different parts: the roofs and the clock tower, the façades and the interiors. The roofs of the Administration Pavilion originally had a wide variety of decorative ceramic elements, and several skylights that filled the building with light. The clock tower was also ornately decorated and is a signature landmark of the historical site. The main objective is recovering the original image of the building, for this reason the east wing only needed a small amount of restoration work, while the west wing was completely renovated in order to recover the original symmetry and decoration. The clock tower posed various structural challenges which have been overcome, while elements which had deteriorated or disappeared have been restored after an exhaustive analysis of old photos, and the original plans and diagrams. The restoration work of the brick façades has therefore focused on cleaning and restoring the elements that have survived, respecting the patina of age that has built up, or recreating the elements that have disappeared remaining as faithful as possible to their original design. Moreover, the carpentry of all the openings has been restored or replaced, and the thermal capacity of the building has been improved with a minimum of restoration work by replacing the glass. The original interplay of solid and void has been recovered, as has the original symmetry.

The school is made up of. three units of varying heights, which face north-south and run parallel to the street where the entrance to the school is located. The nursery and primary school are therefore separate units, which are interconnected through the passages leading to the services areas, which are the communal areas. Thanks to this design the building is extremely compact. The main unit has several patios in the centre, that form green spaces which energise the environment. The opening up of the interior of the building improves illumination and cross-ventilation in the ground floor rooms. The severe outlines of the façades are counterbalanced by incorporating the stairs and lifts as external elements. In contrast to other designs, we decided to use an industrialised building system for this nursery and primary school from the outset. This type of prefabricated dry construction is carried out in the workshop-factory under conditions that optimise the execution time, quality controls, and the work conditions. After the building has been completed in the workshop – including all the finishes from the ground up – it is dismantled and the modules are separated so they can be transported to the site where they are assembled and ready for use.
