Pàgines interiors del llibre 'Sala Becket'

This book is not just a book of architecture. Of course it contains plans, sketches, models, etc. But, at the same, you can almost smell the meticulous work that went into converting a former cooperative in the Poblenou district of Barcelona into a performing arts creation factory and social space for debate and reflection. You will hear voices, discover memories and experience the exciting developments the new building underwent. With some excellent architectural, cultural and social reflections, and spectacular images of all the work. A book that enables the reader to follow a construction project that preserved the ghosts of the former cooperative within the building, ensuring they gave a pleasant welcome to the new occupants and their stories.
