GRUP VITALICIO de Barcelona When a company's capacity enables it to design its own headquarters, its needs can be planned and designed to be met almost in their entirety. The Barcelona headquarters of the Grupo Vitalicio company, designed by an engineering firm and furnished by -Manbar, meets these requirements, creating top-quality worksites. The installation of furnishings and fixtures in keeping with the austerity defined by the premises, has provided harmony and ergonomics to the entire assemblage which in many cases is difficult to achieve. The professionality and collaboration of the staff who has worked in the installation are a major part of its success. In the general and section head offices, desks, tables, cabinets and partitions were used to bring about the necessary conditions for comfort in work, also providing for the channeling of all electric, computer and telephone wiring. In the executive area, the furnishing, designed by Miguel Milá, is characterized by its austere, simple lines, but with finishes and construction details which have achieved an end-result of unquestionable quality. Seating and other complements have been carefully designed from a standpoint which places a premium on ergonomics and utility.
