The B sculpture which crowns the building is B-Hotel’s emblem and a new indispensible part of the Barcelona skyline. It pays homage to the entire city and to Joan Brossa, the Catalan poet whose work is based heavily on the structure of the alphabet.
The letter B is also present throughout the whole hotel through artistic touches and designs created exclusively for B-Hotel by three artists: Franc Aleu, Rafael Vargas and STUDIO X of Milan. Their works can be seen all over the hotel, and stand out especially in the lobby, where a giant mural of a map of the city hangs over the reception desk, a giant B marking the hotel’s exact location.
These pieces also enhance the hotel rooms, lending them immense character. Rafael Vargas’ work fills the hallways, landings and rooms on the first and second floors; the third and fourth feature pieces by STUDIO X; and Franc Aleu’s work is viewable on the fifth and sixth floors.
Barcelona serves as the limitless inspiration behind the total 100 pieces on display in B-Hotel.
