Although you'd probably never think of living in
a cement factory, Bofill's home is proof that abandoned
spaces can become magical with a bit of ingenious
thought and a passion for pure design.
In the 'cathedral' as they call it remains one of 30 of the factory's
giant silos in its center, an unassuming but beautiful artistic
addition to the room.
Bofill's choice of a cement factory was not without purpose, however. Cement is one of the major elements in architecture, and Bofill wanted to embrace the nature of his craft by paying homage-through-design to this run-down factory. The different parts of the factory soon became his office, his bathroom and even his bedroom, all designed according to different historical architectural trends.
