„Ponosno objavljujemo da je novi objekat studija MiAS Architects, sedište kompanije iGuzzini Illuminazione Ibérica u Barseloni, proglašen pobednikom na takmičenju za objekat godine 2011. u okviru kategorije institucionalni objekat, koje organizuje Archdaily, najznačajniji i najposećeniji arhitektonski web portal u svetu. Hvala svima na glasovima i podršci tokom svih ovih godina.“
Josep Miàs, Arh.
Objekat iGuzzini kao da ne pripada tu gde je smešten. Kao balon, Leonidov aerostat, pokušava da pobegne iz ovog sveta u potrazi za novim nebom. On pokazuje uslove svetla, prirodnog i veštačkog, u svom enterijeru okreće se svom poreklu i prepoznaje geometrijski sklad, ali iznad svega on želi da nam govori o aspiracijama.
Usidren u zemlju, on pripada tom mestu, ali i svim drugim mestima. U realnosti postoje forme koje se mogu nacrtati samo jednom, zgrade koje se mogu izgraditi samo jednom, a drugi put već postaju replike. Mi verujemo u ovu priliku za iGuzzini, jer ovakav oblik, nesavršen, blago deformisan, pripada svetu iGuzzini. Iako ga je lako identifikovati, ne može svako biti podesan za ovakav profil ili ovakvu geometriju.
Iguzzini ne teži da se razmeće izričitim tehnološkim inovacijama, ali želi da bude primer koji oslikava trenutni razvoj ka održivosti u tehnološkom i u energetskom smislu. Naš predlog nastoji da na svom primeru, u arhitekturi, objasni stanja najbliža čoveku, kao što su: društvenost, ambicija i izvrsnost. iGuzzini objekat je lociran pored jednog saobraćajnog čvorišta u Barseloni, u nedefinisanim stabilnosnim uslovima te lokacije. Bez izmena topografije terena, veliki podzemni prostor prethodno je organizovan tako da obezbeđuje skladištenje, parking, prostor izložbenog salona, auditorijum i tehničke prostore. Krov objekta predložen je u vidu spoljnjeg tehničkog sprata tako da funkcioniše i kao otvoren izložben salon.
Iznad ovog podzemnog bloka stoji zgrada kompanije, oblika sfere koja je blago deformisana na južnoj strani. Veliki centralni prazan prostor, koga okupira stub koji nosi objekat obešen o njega, omogućava veću kontrolu svetla i energije unutra. Prostor unutar sfere se koristi kao kancelarijski prostor i prostor za istraživanje.

„We are proud to announce that the new iGuzzini Illuminazione Ibérica headquarters in Barcelona by Josep Miàs – MiAS Architects has been declared WINNER at the Building of the Year Awards 2011, Institutional Building category, organised by Archdaily, the most important and visited architectural web platform in the world. Thank you all for voting and giving us support all these years.“
Josep Miàs, Arch.
iGuzzini does not belong to the ground on which it sits. Like a balloon, Leonidov’s aerostat, it will attempt to escape from this world, seeking a new sky. It will describe the conditions of the light, natural and artificial, in its interior, it will refer to its origins, recognizing a geometric order, but above all it will want to speak to us of aspirations.
Moored to the ground, it belongs to this place, and to all other places. In reality, there are forms that can only be drawn once, buildings that can only be built once, the second time being a replica. We believe in this opportunity for iGuzzini. Because this form, imperfect, slightly deformed, belongs to the world of iGuzzini. Though it is easy to identify, not everyone can appropriate this profile or this geometry.
iGuzzini does not seek to boast of explicit technological innovation, but it does seek to be an example of current development towards well understood sustainability in both technological and energy terms. Our proposal seeks to exemplify, in architecture, the conditions closest to humankind including: collectivity, ambition, and excellence. iGuzzini is located by one of the roadway hubs of Barcelona, in a fragile condition of stability on the site where it sits. Without modifying the topography, a large underground space is previously delimited, providing storage, parking, a showroom, an auditorium, and an area for technical services. Its roof is proposed as an exterior technical floor such that it works like an outdoor showroom.
Atop this underground container emerges the company building, spherical in form though slightly deformed on the south side. A large central void, occupied by the single column from which the entire building is suspended, permits greater light and energy control inside. The space within the sphere is used for offices and research facilities.
