Spanish architecture and design studio System Arquitectura has designed the Mayoral New Warehouse Logistics Centre in Spain, featuring a unique façade inspired by textiles that enhances natural light and conceals the rigid mechanics of logistics.
The expansive building reimagines industrial architecture, wrapping storage and function in an urban aesthetic that reflects the stylish, high-end design principles of the Spanish children’s clothing brand Mayoral.
The design respects the scale and character of the surrounding structures, with a façade featuring a meticulously engineered double bioclimatic skin. The internal layer of translucent polycarbonate multi-cell panels ensures insulation, waterproofing, impact resistance, and diffusion of natural light.
The spatial design of the 18,814 sqm institutional building is a refined orchestration of storage and operational efficiency. A 3,163 sqm mezzanine floor hovers at a height of 4.5 metres, creating an intermediary layer of operations that enhances dimensional coherence.
The project is meticulously prefabricated and assembled, allowing for scrupulous execution, budget adherence, and minimal on-site disruption. “The use of prefabrication and BIM technology ensured precise budget and deadline compliance,” the architects mentioned.
With the Mayoral Warehouse Logistics Centre, System Arquitectura has crafted a statement where structure, history, and sustainability converge into a singular, cloaked form that defines the evolving lexicon of industrial design.
