Aribau 195 and Casa Pich i Pon are two large-scale rehabilitation projects conceived by the SCOB studio based on the relationship and understanding of the other, working together to promote positive changes in the way in which spaces are built.   The two interventions seek to recover links with nature, the city and the places we inhabit by means of an innovation process that places empathy at the centre of the design process, thus increasing the environmental, social and cultural value of the activity.   This empathic innovation focuses on the user experience and respect for the habitat and serves as the transformational force that energises architectural heritage to provide the appropriate conditions to function as life support.
