Reclaim and and bring the value back to an abandoned building, with a dramatic change of use, by going from an automotive workshop to a library, which would contain its own books from the University of Pablo de Olavide.

We manage to transform an dull building, with its only interest being its colossal size and singular structure, to a modern building with international interest.  

By Braking the existing monotony with new entries which magnify and guarantee the functionality of the building, creating a new rhythm, new spaces, and feelings throughout its suggestive volumes and natural light entries, it is now more in tune with its new use.

Its colossal structure and huge steel trusses are reclaimed and shown with pride. The transition from a machinery workshop to a knowledge warehouse.
