Espai Cooperatiu del Nucli Antic (Casa dels Nassos)

The Espai Cooperatiu del Nucli Antic is housed on the ground floor of Casa Serra, also known as Casa dels Nassos, a listed building in Olot protected as a local cultural heritage site. It is widely regarded as the finest example of rationalist architecture in the city, featuring hallmark elements of the style such as continuous horizontal windows, ship-style railings and a lack of ornamentation. At the same time, it features a relatively uncommon floor plan, with successive overhangs arranged diagonally to the street.
The ground floor of the building is home to the Garrotxa-Ripollès branch of the Architects’ Association of Catalonia (COAC). As part of the Old Town regeneration project, led by architect Itziar González and promoted by Olot City Council, the COAC will share its facilities with the initiative, joining forces to help transform and restore Olot’s Nucli Antic.
