The project
For Porcelanosa’s 24th International Exhibition of Global Architecture and Interior Design, Archicercle made two large scale models of its facilities, in collaboration with Adrián Mora Maroto. Together, they represented the existing site and a new cladding production plant that was under construction at the time.
The commission took the form of two models with different dimensions and scales: one measuring 2.6 × 1.6 m at 1:500 and another measuring 1.6 × 1.6 m at 1:250. Both formed part of a single presentation of Porcelanosa’s industrial facilities.
The new plant brought a future perspective to the presentation. Its plans included more open spaces and wide spans for the production of large-format ceramics. The model translated that industrial project into a physical representation while the building was still under construction.
The representation combines building volumes, roofs and sequences of portal frames on white bases. These elements convey both the overall configuration of the facilities and their spatial organisation. Archicercle’s documented contribution was the making of the two models, with Adrián Mora Maroto taking part as a regular collaborator of the studio.
