Poble Nou

Back in the day, Poblenou was known as the “Catalonian Manchester” for being the centre of Catalan and Iberian industry. After the 1992 Olympics, the city decided to implement the 22@ district plan. The project basically meant to renew the area, which had been left pretty abandoned, in to a central business district. Nowadays, that old cluster of factories and working class residences has evolved in to the city’s tech and innovation district. Artists, creatives and young professionals from around the world have converted the former factories and warehouses into unique lofts, galleries, shops and co-working spaces.

L’estoc is a real one-off. Not only because they offer unique pieces of furniture made from repurposed wood (each one marked and numbered), but because of the social aspect: Their workshop consists entirely of people with intellectual disabilities, fostering development through work and stimulating the creative process that results in beautiful work. Their space is both a showroom and workshop where they design, produce and sell pieces created from disused objects such as wooden doors, screens, cable reels, etc.
