A simplicity that is not only apparent but that is learned through use, this is what we want to communicate. In addition to appearance, the project anticipates the building's experience, environments and flexibility. An intelligent building in terms of ease of use and communication with the user or the customer.


A simple and participative building is intended, where the façade plays the main role, a kind of scenario where you can watch what happens inside or watch a recording of any event. Contact element, it is a hypersurface that interacts with the city. The digital images running on the façade combine the virtual mobility of the screen with the mobility of the spectator, filling the exterior with VODAFONE's way of being.


The interior space glued to the façade is defined by us as “flowing”. With approximately four meters in width, it intends, with a relaxed atmosphere, to create a circulation and seating area, to hold meetings taking advantage of the avenue, or to function as a meeting point for employees. This concept of space is common to the five floors and is responsible for the playful-active personality that exudes outside.


The ground floor comprises the 'megastore' and the auditorium that work together. The upper floors were designed as 'open spaces' that can be easily reconfigured, adapting to the customer's needs in space and time.
