"This trendy home was once a cement factory. The abandoned cement factory was discovered in 1973 and converted to this upscale home by architect Ricardo Bofill. The renovation took two years. The home contains various plants including cypresses, olive trees, palms, and eucalyptus. It serves as Bofillo’s apartment, exhibition space, model laboratory, archives, and architectural office. His renovation included exposing previously concealed structures, cleaning cement and demolishing some structures."
He certainly had an awesome vision of what that could become. Some of those rooms are amazing spaces, a modern day castle almost.....
It's in Barcelona in case you were wondering

Two thumbs up for the renovations, but the idea of 'discovering' a cement plant intrigues me more. How was it lost in the first place?
hahaha yeah "Hmm where did I leave that?"
Holy crap. Pretty spectacular!
I do wonder about the heating though?!
