VASTO is Carmen Riestra’s gallery and home, occupying 500 m² of former industrial space in Poblenou, seeking to discover and bring together the creations of emerging artists, while promoting artistic practice and art collecting.

The space comes with a ceiling by Catalan architect Joan Torras, worthy of admiration: steel beams and flat ceramic pieces, a 19th-century construction technique that defined Barcelona’s industrial architecture.

Mesura kept the space deliberately ambiguous. A freestanding wooden volume separates the public from the private area without touching walls or ceiling, preserving the loft’s full spatial continuity. The rest moves: bed, bathtub, sink — all repositionable, allowing the space to reconfigure between domestic life and exhibition.

Light as a whisper, Tekiò Horizontal is suspended above one of the few fixed elements in the residence: the long, heavy central table.
