San Sebastián reaffirms its position as an epicentre of gastronomy with the Gastronomy Open Ecosystem (GOe), a dynamic architectural project by BIG-Bjarke Ingels Group. GOe is an exciting addition to the Basque Culinary Center and it is a new international hub for food, innovation, and community. Roca partnered with BIG-Bjarke Ingels Group in providing customized bathroom solutions for the multi-purpose structure.
GOe was conceived as an open laboratory for knowledge, where researchers, chefs, entrepreneurs, students, companies, and citizens can come together to rethink the future of food from a cross-disciplinary perspective. With Roca as a partner, the bathroom spaces applied the same spirit of innovation and sustainability that is found throughout the project. To complement the bold red-toned resin surfaces found across the floors, walls and ceilings of the bathroom, Roca placed Modo Dash washbasins, custom-made in white and black. The Gap wall-mounted washbasins and various types of Loft-E self-closing faucets are ideal for high-trafficked spaces and cohere with the energy efficiency of the building. The Ona wall-hung toilets, in matte white and black finishes, and The Gap toilets in comfort versions, enhance the style and accessibility of the bathroom space. In the sophisticated restaurant, Roca’s black-finish faucets and accessories added a touch of distinction and coherence with the visual language of the high-end space.
