Previous attempts to convert the structure into a hotel had failed to gain approval from Palma\u2019s city council. This iteration, however, reversed the typical approach. Rather than inserting a hotel into an historic shell, the architects aim to let the identity of Can Oliver shape the design of Hotel Nobis Palma.<\/p>\n<p>images \u00a9\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.josehevia.es\/en\/\">Jose\u0301 Hevia<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wow wow-yellow\">uncovering the building\u2019s layered heritage<\/h2>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nobishotel.es\/\"><strong>Hotel Nobis Palma<\/strong><\/a> renovation began with a detailed architectural survey, cataloging traces of the Mallorca building\u2019s long evolution \u2014 arched doorways, bricked-in windows, and layered facades. Instead of covering these findings, the design teams at <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/jordiherrero.com\/\">Jordi Herrero Arquitectos<\/a><\/strong> and\u00a0<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/egarq.com\/\">Eduardo Garc\u00eda Acu\u00f1a<\/a><\/strong> made them visible. In the restaurant area, both a 1950s intervention and the original wall behind it were preserved, allowing the two to coexist.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Guest rooms retain their spatial integrity. Protected volumes were left untouched by partition walls. Bathrooms, where necessary, are inserted as freestanding steel and glass enclosures. These minimal volumes appear detached from the historic envelope and also integrate ventilation systems. Where circulation required modification, such as when a corridor intersected an original chamber, the architects tunnel through the space, maintaining the perception of the room as a whole.<\/p>\n<p>Hotel Nobis Palma occupies the historic Can Oliver in Mallorca<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wow wow-yellow\">a sensitive, reversible intervention in mallorca<\/h2>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The Hotel Nobis Palma\u2019s unique attic spaces, which typically rely on skylights, are re-lit using open courtyards carved into the roofline. These garden voids allow for natural light and vegetation while avoiding Mallorca\u2019s excessive solar heat. Throughout the building, any new interventions are built to be reversible and distinguishable from the original fabric.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>New architectural elements introduced in the renovation \u2014 including interior partitions are stairs \u2014 are constructed from blackened steel, offering a clear visual contrast to the recovered stone and plaster surfaces. These new elements further exaggerate the weight of the stone structure and, with their flexibility, allow for future adaptations without compromising historical integrity.<\/p>\n<p>the renovation preserves traces of Gothic and Arabic architectural heritage<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The interior design by Wing\u00e5rdhs softens the heavy atmosphere of the surrounding stone building. Custom wood furniture, generous textiles, and tailored lighting schemes bring warmth to the hotel\u2019s austere shell. Subtle luxuries, such as flowing curtains and slender-legged chairs, are chosen to complement the architecture.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Lush plantings appears throughout the lofty rooms, courtyards, and garden niches, infusing the material palette with a natural rhythm. The lighting program is designed to accentuate surface textures, which allows the space to gradually shift with ever-changing shadows throughout the day.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The structure\u2019s imperfections are left raw where possible, and modern interventions are legible and precise. This way, the hotel is expressed as an occupiable archive of layered history.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>the architects prioritize revealing original textures over applying new finishes<\/p>\n<p>lightweight, blackened steel elements lend a sensitive, reversible intervention<\/p>\n<p>\t<!-- CLOSE ARTICLE CONTENT --><\/p>\n<div class=\"fullwidth-image\">\n<div class=\"layout-box\">\n<div class=\"page-content\">\n<p>Wing\u00e5rdhs\u2019 interior design softens the architecture with wood textiles and greenery<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p>\t<!-- OPEN ARTICLE CONTENT -->\t<\/p>\n<p>attic rooms are lit by open-air courtyards instead of traditional skylights<\/p>\n<p>\t<!-- CLOSE ARTICLE CONTENT --><\/p>\n<div class=\"fullwidth-image\">\n<div class=\"layout-box\">\n<div class=\"page-content\">\n<p>the project allows Can Oliver\u2019s layered history to shape Hotel Nobis Palma\u2019s identity<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p>\t<!-- OPEN ARTICLE CONTENT -->\t<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>project info:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>name: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nobishotel.es\/\">Hotel Nobis Palma<\/a>\u00a0| <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/nobishotelpalma\/\">@nobishotelpalma<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>architect:\u00a0<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/jordiherrero.com\/\">Jordi Herrero Arquitectos<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/jordiherreroarquitectos\/\">@jordiherreroarquitectos<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/egarq.com\/\">Eduardo Garc\u00eda Acu\u00f1a<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/egarquitectura\/\">@egarquitectura<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>location:<\/strong> Calle Caputxines 9, Palma de Mallorca, Spain<\/p>\n<p><strong>area:<\/strong> 2,253 square meters<br \/>\n<strong>photography:<\/strong> \u00a9\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.josehevia.es\/en\/\">Jose\u0301 Hevia<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>client:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/genova.se\/\">Genova Group<\/a><br \/>\n<strong>interior design:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wingardhs.se\/\">Wing\u00e5rdhs<\/a> <br \/>\n<strong>quantity surveyor:<\/strong> Jorge G\u00f3mez <br \/>\n<strong>archaeologist:<\/strong> Rafael Turatti <br \/>\n<strong>structures:<\/strong> Fernando Purroy <br \/>\n<strong>installations engineering:<\/strong> Reolid Consulting <br \/>\n<strong>lighting:<\/strong> Elektroshields <br \/>\n<strong>landscaping:<\/strong> Eugenia Corcoy <br \/>\n<strong>construction:<\/strong> Akko Building<\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/www.designboom.com\/architecture\/mallorca-hotel-nobis-palma-historic-stone-steel-interventions-renovation-spain-08-08-2025\/\">mallorca\u2019s hotel nobis palma preserves historic stone with steel interventions<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.designboom.com\/\">designboom | architecture &amp; design magazine<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>hotel nobis palma revives a centuries-old structure \u00a0 Hotel Nobis Palma occupies a centuries-old building in the heart of Mallorca\u2019s capital.
