With an area of more than 220 hectares, Mercamadrid is one of the largest wholesale markets of fresh products in Europe. The project for Frutas Eloy is being developed in this food-supply environment, with a two-level building for cold storage where 32 trucks operate uninterruptedly 24 hours a day, carrying out loading and unloading tasks.

The building is an elongated rectangular volume, with a floor plan 82 meters long and 19 wide. The materials used include reused composites and recycled waste, with a selection of construction elements thought out to minimize impacting on the environment.

Flexibility is at the heart of the design: the office spaces are open-plan and versatile, with areas for both individual and team work. The spatial configuration maximizes incoming daylight, minimizes noise, and fosters interaction among employees. In addition, there are open rest areas and interiors with plants, and at the heart of the office zone is a kitchen that serves as a venue for culinary demonstrations.
