Convent de Sant Francesc is one of those projects which redefine modern architecture, designed by David Closes Architects it is a conversion of an 18th century church into an auditorium and a multi-functional cultural facility in Catalonia.

The project itself, especially the entrance photo above are now one of architecture scene’s most recognizable images. It comes a moment when a project, and an image become more famous than the architects, when even the location itself is absolute.
