Appreciation towards Ricardo Bofill Taller de Arquitectura for providing the following description:

1973年里卡多•波菲发现了一个水泥厂，一个上个世纪之交时的工业综合体，包括30个筒仓，地下仓库和巨大的机房。这个工厂，当时已被废弃且部分成为了废墟，它曾经是一个工业建筑各种形式的注解，可以被解释为野兽派，浪漫主义，超现实主义等等……——楼梯不能到达任何地方，坚固的钢筋混凝土结构没有承载物，很多铁质构件空悬着，巨大的空白的空间仿佛被魔法填满。改建的进程从拆除开始，爆破那些无用的楼板构件，仿佛是在混凝土上进行雕刻。一旦当空间被确定，水泥被清除掉，建筑被新种植的绿色植物覆盖，同时将工厂的功能转变成了建筑事务所的总部。筒仓被改建成了工作室，一个制作模型的实验室，档案室，图书室，同时一个大的工业空间被改造成了现在我们称为”大礼堂” ，用于会议以及相关的展示，演讲，音乐会和所有的和建筑设计事业有关的文化活动。整个综合建筑矗立在布满桉树，棕榈树，橄榄树和柏树的花园中。里卡多•波菲的住宅也安置在这里。一个神奇的改造。

In 1973 Ricardo Bofill discovered a cement factory, part of an industrial complex from the turn of the century, comprising over 30 silos, underground galleries and huge engine rooms. He decided to transform it into his head office. Remodelling work lasted two years. The factory, abandoned and partially in ruins, was a compendium of surrealist elements—stairs that climbed up to nowhere, mighty reinforced concrete structures that sustained nothing, pieces of iron hanging in the air; in short, huge empty spaces filled nonetheless with magic. The transformation process began with the demolition of part of the old structure, laying previously concealed forms bare, as if the concrete had been sculpted. Once the spaces had been defined, cleaned of cement and enhanced with surrounding, newly-planted greenery, the process began of adaptating the site to the new programme. Eight silos were left standing, and turned into offices, a modelling laboratory, archives, a library, a projection room and a huge space known as ‘The Cathedral’, the venue for subsequent exhibitions, lectures, concerts and a whole range of cultural activities linked to the architect’s professional life. The complex stands in the midst of gardens of eucalyptus, palms, olive trees and cypresses. It also features Ricardo Bofill’s house and guest rooms. The factory is a magic place which strange atmosphere is difficult to be perceived by a profane eye. I like the life to be perfectly programmed here, ritualised, in total contrast with my turbulent nomad life.
