Vitale studio的办公室选址在一个与历史对话的空间中，追寻简洁和原真。项目诉说着公司的存在方式，展现了团队的创意工作。事务所位于西班牙Castellón历史中心的一栋古老建筑中。Bernat Artola于1947年建造了这栋建筑。此人是一个多面手，除了建筑师，他还是一位诗人，并且热衷于艺术，其曾经的工作室便位于这栋建筑中。Vitale studio的新办公室保留了原始结构的精华，并赋予了空间新的外观，注重功能，开放且明亮。

Vitale studio projects its headquarters in a space that dialogues with the past in search of simplicity, authenticity and origins. A project that talks about the way of being and doing of this team of creatives. The studio is located in the historic center of Castellón, in a historicist building from 1947 built by the versatile Bernat Artola, poet and passionate about the arts, who had his studio in this building. The new Vitale offices rescue the essence of the original construction and provide a new look: functional, open and bright.

工作室面积约80平米，分成了三个区域：工作区，汇报区和休息区。原始空间被划分成了许多部分，设计拆除了所有非结构元素，从而形成了一个连续开放、充满自然光照的空间。

With an area of about 80 m2, the space is developed in 3 areas: work, presentations and rest. The starting point is a house that was originally very compartmentalized in which all non-structural elements are eliminated to generate continuity of spaces open to natural light.

为了重新展现建筑的原有元素，如砖墙、木梁和室内木工艺等，设计师剥去了层层涂料和石膏，同时保留了那些破败的痕迹，讲述空间真实的历史。

In order to rediscover the existing elements (solid brick walls, wooden beams or interior carpentry) the layers of paint and plaster that hid them were removed, but without trying to repair the defects or scars what tell the true space story.

3.4米高的传统拱顶得到保留，并且成为了项目的主要元素，间接照明将房梁框定在巨大的几何图案中。天花仅在卫生间和办公区设置吊顶，以隐藏空调管道。围墙则可以提升保温效果，同时便于水电和网络设备的安装。 设计通过浇筑混凝土板创造了一个压缩层，以修复和加固原有的结构。大部分混凝土都被打磨至展现出集料，成为了项目的铺地。

The 3.40 m high traditional vaulted ceilings are restored to make them the main element of the project by means of indirect lighting pits that frame the beams in large geometric figures. The ceilings are only lowered in the bathroom and in the office to hide the air conditioning ducts. Many perimeter walls bend to improve insulation and facilitate the passage of plumbing, electrical and network installations. A rehabilitation and reinforcement intervention of the structure is carried out by means of a compression layer with pouring of concrete slab. Much of this concrete is polished to show off the aggregate and leave it as pavement in use.
