The progeny of an advertising firm, Otras Cosas de Villar-Rosàs was set up simply with the idea in mind to showcase “otras cosas”, or “other things”. While not necessarily an art gallery, it leaves its creative manifesto open, and is home to a widely ranging program of architectural exhibitions, live music, screenings and graphic design. Step inside to one of its six spaces and be amazed by the spectrum of possibilities on display.

Bathroom brand Roca has branched out beyond sinks and bathtubs, using their modern design know-how to develop this gob-smacking, futuristic space.

On a day-to-day basis the spot functions as the firm’s headquarters, though is also used to house the company’s showroom as well as hosting numerous social and corporate events.

This four star hotel features 67 rooms, each decorated with designer fabrics, mattresses, pillows, showerheads, flat screen televisions and partitioned lighting arrangements. Beatriz Cosials’ interior design compliments architect Joseph Rui’s vision for the hotel on the whole, orienting functionality foremost, while incorporating historic elements such as the building’s original 1892 facade with creative modern installments of light, water and color moving through the common areas.

The hotel’s restaurant, GAIG (honored with one Michelin star), offers guests excellent Mediterranean fusion cuisine from renowned chef Carles Gaig. The Mareva Lobby Cocktail Bar is a serene setting to relax with a drink, or consider the humidor for a fine selection of cigars. If it’s fresh air you prefer instead, lounge by the hotel’s outdoor swimming pool.
