Office interior design in Barcelona
code-compliant, not just rendered.

Núria Bosch (architect, COAC) leads office design with the four real constraints baked in from day one — classification of use, CTE-DB-SUA accessibility, DB-HR acoustic, electrical contract capacity. The Ajuntament licence sticks the first time, the team can occupy the day after handover.

About this service

Designed for team productivity, not for the camera angle.

Most office renderings break the moment a building inspector measures a corridor — under 1,20 m at one point, no adapted bathroom for 50+ aforament, sound between meeting rooms not at DB-HR levels. We design backwards from the four real Barcelona constraints, then make it look good.

01

Classification-of-use check first

Cadastre check on day one: is the local registered as terciari (office use ready) or habitatge (needs change-of-use to Activitats, 6-12 weeks)? At 22@ usually terciari; at Eixample often habitatge. We flag this before signing the design fee.

02

CTE-DB-SUA accessibility

Corridors over 1,20 m, adapted bathroom if aforament > 50, exits per route distance, signage homologated. Calculated in the working drawings, not retrofitted after the inspector flags them.

03

Acoustic DB-HR + lux per task

Workstations 500 lux with CRI >80, meeting rooms with dimmer, focus rooms warm indirect, reception decorative-led. Acoustic between rooms 45-50 dBA — measured with sound meter at handover, not just specified.

Pick the depth. Deliverables follow.

Office light

Layout strategy and concept board — without the technical memoir for the Ajuntament. Right for teams up to 15 in a local already registered as terciari, where only re-zoning and re-styling is needed.

Common office design questions

Things owners ask before signing.

Not without a change-of-use to Activitats. The cadastre still says habitatge, your insurance won't cover commercial use, and the Ajuntament can fine €1.500-6.000 + force closure. We file the change-of-use as part of Standard or Supervision tier (+€1.200 fixed); 6-12 week turnaround.
At 22@ most naves and buildings are already terciari, no change-of-use needed. You'll need a llicència ambiental simplificada (3-5 weeks) for offices under 50 people, ambiental ordinària above that. Bigger lead time on the licence than on the design itself.
Spanish Building Code, Safety of Use and Accessibility section. Sets corridors > 1,20 m, adapted bathroom if aforament > 50, exit routes by distance, signage. If the project doesn't comply, the Ajuntament rejects the licence — not the contractor's fault, just the file's. We design to it from the first sketch.
An office without proper acoustic isolation is one where the meeting rooms broadcast to the workstations, and the urban noise comes through windows. DB-HR fixes minimums (45-50 dBA between rooms). We measure with a sound meter at handover — and we also redesign room layouts so noisy rooms (kitchenette, comms) don't share walls with focus rooms.
Yes — the deliverable is yours, you can hand it to any contractor. Many clients ask three contractors to quote against our drawings and choose. We also bid on our own designs; no hard-sell into our build.
If aforament passes 50, an adapted bathroom and an extra emergency exit are mandatory. We recalculate at the project, the cost delta is itemised on Núria's quote. We flag it before, not after.
