Ametller Origen Blanes: autonomous construction project.

At the girbaumateu architecture studio, we continue to lead projects of autonomous retail constructions that combine innovation, sustainability and energy efficiency. We have recently collaborated in the design and execution of an autonomous prefabricated warehouse intended for the retail sector, located in Blanes for Ametller Origen Blanes. This stand-alone (or independent) building is an example of the commitment to sustainable and energy-efficient constructions.

The roof of the building has a complete installation of photovoltaic panels, which allows the building to be energy self-sufficient and significantly reduce its environmental impact. In addition, its prefabricated structure guarantees rapid execution and optimal use of resources. The construction of this building in Blanes by Ametller Origen is an example to follow.

This type of independent construction is not only an efficient solution for current retail needs, but also marks the way towards a future where sustainable architecture is the protagonist for companies like Ametller Origen in Blanes.

Why opt for autonomous and sustainable construction?
1. Energy efficiency: Reduction of consumption thanks to the use of renewable energies such as solar energy.
2. Flexibility: Prefabricated systems allow you to customize the design and adapt it to different needs.
3. Sustainability: Buildings designed to minimize the ecological footprint.
4. Energy independence: Reduction of dependence on external networks.

This warehouse in Blanes represents another step in our mission to combine aesthetics and functionality with environmental awareness. If you are thinking about a similar project, do not hesitate to contact us to find out how we can help you with an Ametller Origen style construction in Blanes.
