Entry Description

Located in Girona's Barri Vell, El Equipo Creativo's design seamlessly blends history and modernity to craft a unique ambience while preserving the 18th-century Baroque palace's original details.

Contrasting with the historic backdrop, vibrant colours, eclectic furniture, and contemporary art bring vitality. The goal is to create a welcoming experience with a feminine touch, achieved through meticulous attention to detail and material selection.

Eclectic furniture creates a relaxed, familial feel, blending styles and eras. Original artworks by local artists enhance the visual experience.

Bio

The architects Oliver Franz Schmidt, Natali Canas del Pozo and Lucas Echeveste Lacy form El Equipo Creativo, an interior design studio based in Barcelona and specialized in the interior design of gastronomic, commercial and brand flag spaces.
"We share the idea that space, the same as food, tells stories, creates sensations and experiences. Every new brief comes with its own story, therefore we aim to find a unique design that includes craftmanship to tell every story in the most enticing way."
