THE HEADQUARTERS · CAMPUS REPSOL, MADRID · 2013
A business campus built like a cloister
Rafael de La-Hoz built on the edges of the plot and left the middle as a garden, aiming for the atmosphere of a monastery cloister. Four buildings stand around the inner courtyard; each has a ground floor and four upper floors, each floor a long glass box framed by strong structural ribs. Repsol calls it a shared, barrier-free space where the four buildings connect, with the garden at its heart and 100 native trees. Two cafeterias, 17 vending areas and a health centre with a medical service and gym serve the people inside.

Office history: from a refinery in Cartagena to a cloister in Madrid
- 1951 Escombreras, where the Repsol name was born
REPESA (Refinería de Petróleos de Escombreras) was set up in 1948 to build a refinery in the Escombreras Valley near Cartagena. It opened in 1951 with a lubricants and asphalts plant, a cogeneration plant, marine facilities and a research centre. Repsol takes its name from REPESA's lubricant brand, chosen because it was well known and easy to say in many languages.
