DESCRIPTION

The former Spain Embassy Chancellery is an old building of great historical and patrimonial value, property of the Spanish State since 1920, which is the official Residence of the Spanish Ambassador in Paris, and where the Chancellery was also located until 1992. 

The project consists of refurbishing the former chancellery offices in their entirety with the closure of a courtyard and the creation of new vertical circulations. The heritage is restored with a contrasting contemporary intervention.
