Open Regeneration of Housing Estates in Barcelona explores the design of an open system for the large-scale adaptation of housing estates in the Barcelona metropolitan area. It features an efficient infrastructure that can be attached to existing buildings to upgrade, protect, repair, reequip, and expand homes and shared spaces. The system is based on an open design that consists of a modular, self-supporting wooden structure that can accommodate kits that address different needs, providing flexibility for diverse uses and future transformations.
