The conference room, installed at the old library of the building, had to provide a multifunctional space to hold different kind of events.
The British Medical Association needed a solution to transform the building old Library into a multifunctional space, maintaining the existing building and adding new facilities. Figueras leverages its engineering and design capabilities to create innovative seating systems that optimize space and enhance profitability.
