The DHub is set to become the first public facility in the city with direct access from the metro! The new foyer at the Glòries station (L1) will be located on the ground floor of the building, acting as a transitional space between public transport and cultural activity.

With an area of 380 square metres, the project is by the architects’ studio AMOO STUDIO SCP, which won the ideas competition for an accessible and flowing configuration. The foyer will have a suspended ceiling with organic geometry setting out the space and elegantly and practically incorporating lighting, signage, audiovisual screens and technical systems.

There will also be a new bar and a large multi-purpose module, conceived as spaces for meeting and interaction, in keeping with the identity of the DHub.

The new entrance to the metro will be open during the facility’s usual opening hours, from 9 am to 9 pm daily, except for Mondays, when the DHub opens from 3.30 pm.

The work, which is due to get under way at the start of 2026 and conclude in the summer, has an overall budget of around a million euros. The inauguration will coincide with Barcelona’s role as the World Capital of Architecture, when the DHub will host the congress of the International Union of Architects (UIA).Remember you can find all the latest on mobility in Barcelona at mobilitat.barcelona, and on the Disseny Hub facility at dissenyhub.barcelona.
