An opportunity to get to know the architecture of Palma
Open House Palma is an annual event that invites owners and managers of public and private buildings to open their doors to the public. This architecture festival aims to show the best examples of architecture and design in Palma. During a week, from November 4 to 10, various activities related to architecture will be held, but the open days will be limited to the weekend of November 9 and 10.
Discover the buildings of Palma
During Open House Palma, nearly sixty buildings in the Historic Center and in different neighborhoods of the city will participate in the open days. This is a unique opportunity for citizens to get to know the inside of these spaces, which are often closed or hidden from the general public. The buildings that participate in this initiative are of two types: historic buildings that are heritage assets and new or recently renovated buildings.
An apartment renovated by the architect Adrià Clapès
One of the buildings that can be visited during the weekend of November 9 and 10 is an apartment renovated by the ANC architecture studio. This apartment, located in Plaça de l’Olivar, is the work of the architect Adrià Clapès. The space, about 80 square meters, is divided into two distinct areas: a kitchen area, living room and dining room, and a room separated by a large sliding door. The apartment stands out for its east-facing windows, which offer a privileged view of the square and the Eixample de Palma. Its design uses earthy tones and highlights the use of natural wood.
An event for everyone
Open House Palma is a multidisciplinary event that aims to involve the entire community. All residents, social agents, technicians and professionals are welcome to participate. In addition to the open days, the event includes talks, walks and screenings, among other activities. The aim is to strengthen the social fabric and encourage citizen participation.
