Construction of Spain’s first smart building with sustainable materials and high energy efficiency

Located at number 313 Carrer Pere IV in the neighbourhood known as the 22@ District in the Sant Martí district, the Smart La Escocesa office building project is leading the way in sustainability, energy efficiency and building automation.  

This complex is comprised of three buildings connected by a large garden area and houses a total of 24,604.68 m² of office space. It has multi-purpose spaces, a cafeteria area, gardens at the entrances and a green roof. Parking spaces and chargers for electric vehicles are located in the car park, and ventilation and outdoor air filtration systems are provided on all floors. 

The mobile-controlled building establishes a dialogue with users to help them find a parking space, manage access and facilitate the entry of visitors, access personalised lockers and reserve time in shared spaces, among other things.

Smart La Escocesa makes use of traditional terracotta panels in combination with modern materials, such as glass and aluminium, for a design in keeping with the surroundings of the neighbourhood.  This highly sustainable construction incorporates AAA energy-certified supply installations.

The LEED Platinum certificate awarded by the U.S. Green Building Council and the WELL Platinum certificate awarded by the International WELL Building Institute endorse the project’s environmental approach, which focuses on the comfort, health and well-being of people.
