A demonstration site (building) for adaptive reuse and NEB based transformation,
Responsible of European Projects Unit at Tarragona Provincial Council
Spain
About
We offer a 1975 underused building (7,076 m², 7 floors + 3 basements) currently being rehabilitated into a high-performance administrative hub in Tarragona (Spain). Ideal for NEB testing: NZEB retrofit, circularity, occupant wellbeing, urban integration.
Ideal demonstrator for adaptive reuse, circular renovation and sustainable maintenance. The building has been vacant since 2020 and is being fully repurposed for public administration. It is suitable for testing innovative materials, hybrid construction techniques and digital tools. The building is fully connected to an adjacent operational building, enabling integrated design scenarios.
It has a strong alignment with NEB calls on regeneration, circularity and reuse of obsolete spaces. As a pilot it can give access to technical teams, data, and administrative processes for real‑world validation.
