Carner Barcelona Perfumery’s strategy focuses on the search for a timeless project that links tradition with cosmopolitan contemporaneity. It is intended that the visitor enjoy a completely visual, tectonic, and olfactory experience.

The materials, combined with each other, have been chosen to achieve a genuine proposal. They are of local origin and used in coherence with the project.

We took into account their characteristics, sensations to the touch, and behaviour with natural light. Those with low environmental impact are prioritized, such as wood for furniture and flooring.
