In Iran, there are usually fewer opportunities for architects to design educational buildings. A few years ago, a typical building was granted to the Faculty of Architecture to rebuild it according to their future needs. It was a skeletal building structure in two floors with a U-shaped space and an underground space. A central space was then created, as a vital environment for learning.
The building accommodates the European hub for the international network of design and visual arts universities, LCI Education. It is located in the former industrial district of Poblenou in Barcelona, now the technological district 22@, which is undergoing an urban transformation.
