项目坐落于西班牙瓦伦西亚，原是一座古老的工业建筑，也是现存为数不多的三十年代工业建筑遗迹之一，具有无可置疑的社会历史价值。精致的装饰风格外立面赋予了建筑独特的艺术气息，使其成为艺术展览等文化活动的理想场地。

Bombas Gens is an old industrial building with an unquestionable social-historical value and one of the rare remaining examples of the industrial architecture of the thirties. Its Art Deco façades and architecture make it a special, unique location for some new uses according to today needs.

改造后的 Bombas Gens 工厂变身为国际知名的多功能艺术展览空间，Fundació Per Amor a L’Art 基金会将在这里展开艺术、社会调研与学术研究活动。在整个瓦伦西亚地区范围内，Bombas Gens 艺术中心的改造过程堪称独一无二。在 Eduardo de Miguel 事务所对原仓库建筑进行修复后，Ramon Esteve Estudio 事务所接手了艺术中心综合体的开发和扩建，此外，纽约著名建筑事务所 Selldorf Architects 的主创建筑师 Annabelle Selldorf 也参与了项目的设计，而她是将标志性建筑转变为博物馆的专家。

The new facilities have been created as an internationally renowned multi-use space where Fundació Per Amor a L’Art will carry out its three-branch activity (arts, society and research). The first images of the addition reveal a few details of a refurbishing process that is unique in Valencia. After the restoration of the warehouses by Eduardo de Miguel, Ramón Esteve has taken over the development and extension of the complex with the advice of Annabelle Selldorf, an expert in turning iconic buildings into museums.

“我们的目标是对整个建筑群采用统一的干预标准，同时根据每栋建筑（无论是原始建筑还是新建建筑）的功能，赋予其独立的特征。” Ramón Esteve 解释道。艺术中心是该工业改造建筑群的核心，包含了四栋原仓库建筑，并重新利用了大部分的原始建筑外立面。紧邻艺术中心，设有餐厅、儿童日托中心，以及由旧别墅改造成的基金会办公室。

Our aim has always been to apply a homogeneous intervention criterion to the whole complex, and, at the same time, give each building, be it original or recently built, the characteristic features that it needs for its specific use. Ramón Esteve. The core of the complex is an art centre that uses four of the original warehouses and most of the façade. By its sides we can find the restaurant and the day care centre for children at risk of social exclusion, as well as Foundation’s offices using the former villa.
