To save the medieval town of Olot, Spain, architects revive its demolished buildings.
The center of the town Olot, Spain, is almost half empty. The slow outward migration of development from the core of this 15th century Catalonian town 70 miles north of Barcelona has shrunk the population and led to a series of demolitions of aging buildings. To try to stop the town center’s decline, a local architecture office is working with the town council, local organizations, and community members to bring life back into these emptied spaces.
