    paper Clinic Sports. Health and sport center Barcelona

    Interior Design Statement — Clinic Sport Center, Barcelona

    My work on the Clinic Sport Center in Barcelona reflects my approach to interior design: functional clarity, emotional intention, and hands‑on craftsmanship. I planned and designed the full layout of the center, shaping circulation, zoning, and the overall spatial experience to support both athletic performance and patient well‑being.
    I contributed directly to the decoration and material selection, creating an atmosphere that communicates trust, energy, and modernity. I also helped design and build custom furniture, ensuring every element aligned with the center’s identity and practical needs.
    This project strengthened my belief that interior design is more than aesthetics — it is the creation of spaces that elevate how people feel, move, and heal.
