Kriskadecor project with a timeless design for a VIP lounge that balances elegance and functionality.
The Josep Tarradellas Barcelona-El Prat Airport has recently inaugurated the renovated VIP lounges, which reopened to the public after expansion works and the incorporation of services demanded by passengers. One of these lounges is the Pau Casals, located in Terminal 1.
The project seeks to articulate a timeless design solution that strikes a balance between the elegant and exclusive aesthetics expected in a VIP lounge, and the functionality and adaptability required in an airport. To this end, a series of cozy and comfortable environments have been generated that respond to the programmatic needs requested by the client, while offering a relaxed atmosphere for passengers waiting to board their flight.
In this context, the spaces have been developed with an open concept in which different atmospheres have been created, separated by Kriskadecor metal chain lattices. These lattices, together with the finishes and furniture, have been designed following clear geometries and straight lines and selecting noble and modern materials, under criteria of proven durability and easy maintenance and cleaning.
In terms of distribution, a series of clearly identifiable routes have been designed to organize the different rooms. The latter are defined both by direct and indirect lighting and materials according to their use, as well as by the aluminum partitions, which give a great feeling of spaciousness and maintain an optimal level of privacy and rest.
The technical solution
The BCN Framed System is an elegant and lightweight frame consisting of two profiles fixed to the ceiling and floor that keep the chains taut, and two side rails that close the structure. Since both the rails and the chains are made of aluminum, the system is very light and reduces the load compared to other dividers. In addition, the shape of the links facilitates ventilation and air renewal in enclosed spaces.
The wide customization possibilities of both the chain and the frame favor its integration in any project. In fact, the metal mesh design can be plain or reproduce any image, logo or pattern in high definition thanks to a wide palette of 24 colors in glossy and satin finishes. In the case of the Pau Casals VIP room partitions, the designers chose the Earth pattern by Claire Davies, included in the Collection catalog.
