The Ceramic Textile System from Flexbrick functions as a flexible construction system that is easily adapted to cover all kinds of architectural surfaces. The Flexbrick ceramic textile plays a crucial role in the design of La Gota Cultural Center. The facade of the building is made up of a glass curtain wall and a Flexbrick latticework that acts as a filter for solar radiation.
The architects' intention was to allude the walls of the old tobacco drying sheds that were once so common in the area. The cultural center, a hybrid building designed to host exhibitions, is made up of structures in the shape of irregularly piled boxes, comprising five floors.
