Coworking and Housing in Sant Magí

In Palma de Mallorca’s historic center, a three-story building renovation in Sant Magí’s street balances recovery of the existing with a need for updating. Two luxury flats are located on the upper floors, while a coworking space occupies the ground floor. Coworking facilities span the width of the building and open simultaneously toward the street and the private patio.
A variety of working options are available to meet the needs of each user. The program accommodates an open space with a bespoke wood reception desk, comfortable focus booths, and thinking desks, as well as an independent meeting room, an extra work room, and a chill area connected to the patio.
Materiality assumes a leading role. The use of local materials balances neutrality with uniqueness, while the addition of colorful elements adds a contemporary feel to the space. In the main workspace, the recovered local marès wall harmoniously plays with the softness of the timber custom-made furniture.
However, when we adress to the flats a full floor is devoted to each domestic space in order to enhance the traditional morphology of the local heritage.
Although they share similar characteristics, the apartments display a different programmatic approach toward the building’s intimacy. First-floor common areas are organized towards the patio for peace and quiet. In contrast, the second-floor common spaces face the main street of Sant Magí. Cherishing the island’s style, the flats feature a simple design with bespoke special features.
The outdoor terraces looking towards the patio create an oasis in the center of the city. It is a unique space to relax and enjoy the Mediterranean weather. Responding to aesthetic and programmatic purposes, the patio opens up to the sky and allows the building to naturally cool during summer.In Palma de Mallorca’s historic center, a three-story building renovation in Sant Magí’s street balances recovery of the existing with a need for updating.
