Bombas Gens

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.

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 reinvention and extension of the complex with the advice of Annabelle Selldorf, an expert in turning iconic buildings into museums. “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
