Kairos opens a new studio in Melilla: architecture and design for a singular city
Kairos opens an architecture studio in Melilla, at Calle Querol 52. Architecture, renovation and design services for a city with a character all its own.
There is good news at Kairos: we have opened a new studio in Melilla. From now on, our architecture studio in Melilla serves the city from Calle Querol 52, 52002 Melilla, mezzanine B. So that we can look after you properly, please book an appointment before visiting.

Melilla: history, culture and considerable architectural potential
Melilla is much more than a Spanish enclave in Africa. It is a vibrant city, full of life, with a cultural fusion all of its own: Christians, Muslims, Jews and Hindus live side by side here, and that shows in its streets, its places of worship and its distinctive architecture. Its historic centre, Melilla La Vieja, is a perfectly preserved medieval gem, and its modernist heritage is considered among the finest in Spain. You can read more about that heritage on Melilla’s official tourism website (melilla.es).
The city takes pride in an exemplary coexistence and a welcoming atmosphere. The Plaza de las Cuatro Culturas — the Square of the Four Cultures — is the symbol of that harmony, and walking through its neighbourhoods means discovering the richness of its traditions and architectural styles.
Did you know that Melilla is home to the only Gothic building in Africa? The Chapel of Santiago, inside the First Fortified Enclosure, is an architectural treasure that underlines just how singular the city is.

The vision of our lead architect, Indira Estrada
In the words of Indira Estrada, lead architect at Kairos: “Melilla is a city with enormous potential, both architectural and urban. Its cultural richness and its urban dynamics open up a whole range of possibilities for developing innovative projects, and also for renewing existing spaces, adding value and modernity without losing their essence.”
