While the urban grid remains rigid, the inner courtyards operate as soft, transitional zones, shared, flexible, and socially activated.

Like Barcelona’s courtyards, ENTRE DOS is not a destination but a mediator. It rewires behaviour by existing between formal programs, enabling informal occupation within a highly ordered system.

This project, designed in with Aloka Design Studio, focused on extending an existing, fully operational co-working space without disrupting day-to-day activity. The brief was to add workstations and amenities while making the new area feel seamless with the original, rather than like a visible extension.

The scheme introduces multiple zones, like a library space, a custom conceptual table, both small and large meeting rooms, a stage to host events and alternative seating for calls outside enclosed cabins, to support different ways of working.

Delivered from demolition to handover in just 120 days, the project required coordinating numerous vendors and acting as the primary liaison, effectively becoming a full end-to-end test of independent project management.
