Torre David. Architect Ricardo Bofill Buys Abandoned Cement Factory and Transforms It. No, this isn’t just an old factory, crumbling to pieces.
It used to be a cement factory, sure, but now this sprawling structure is the incredible home of architect Ricardo Bofill. He discovered The Cement Factory in 1973 and it was completely abandoned (and partially in ruins). It couldn’t have looked like much, but Ricardo saw its true potential. He bought it and began renovating. Upcycle House / Lendager Arkitekter.
