At aProperties, we have advised on the rental of two large offices in the Ocean building, located at number 101 Passeig Joan de Borbó, one of the most representative enclaves of Barcelona's seafront. It is next to the W Hotel and just a few metres from the Port Vell.
The building, designed by the prestigious architect Ricardo Bofill, stands out both for its architectural value and its strategic location on the seafront, in an environment that combines corporate appeal, connectivity and urban lifestyle.
In this operation, we have managed the rental of more than 2,500 m², distributed over two floors of the same property:
- 3rd floor, 1st door — 1,284 m²
- 7th floor, 1st door — 1,285 m²
Our client, a multinational specialising in customer service, technical support, and software development, has opted for this space to expand its activity in the city. This reinforces its presence in the Spanish market from a hub with great appeal for international talent.
The Ocean building is located in a vibrant business environment, where some of the most renowned companies in the technology and fashion sectors coexist. It is worth noting that this asset is part of the portfolio of a company closely linked to the local business ecosystem, with a strong presence in the international retail sector, which reinforces the strategic nature of this transaction.
‘This transaction is a clear reflection of the trend for large technology companies to set up in emblematic spaces. With sea views and in areas that are highly attractive for their teams,’ says Guillermo Jou, our director of rentals and offices at aProperties Barcelona. ‘The city of Barcelona continues to consolidate itself as a pole of attraction for global companies seeking to combine quality of life, talent and international projection’.
With this transaction, we reaffirm our role as a reference intermediary in high added value operations, connecting unique assets with companies in expansion or consolidation phase.
