Refurbishing with application of eco and bio compatibility criteria of a 78 square meters open space in the old center of Barcelona. This space is part of the offices of a lawyer cooperative that as promoters decided to have a meeting room adapted for people with environmental health issues like Multiple Chemical Sensitivity or Electro- sensitivity.
The main task of Designers, Architects and Experts has been to find and select non allergic building materials. This task has a double purpose: To find the right building material for the clinic and to spread a pedagogical message. For this last objective a special section of the refurbishment structure of the walls have been left exposed.
