Roca Galleries are not just physical locations, but rather a universal concept that conveys the forward-looking vision of Roca. Built with the principles of design, innovation and sustainability in mind, they showcase the leading global brand’s commitment to an ongoing discourse with society and provide a platform for sharing and cultivating knowledge and ideas with professionals in architecture, design and all those that relate to innovation or sustainability.
An innovative water-inspired space that presents the ultimate brand experience
The multi-award winning Roca London Gallery is much more than a display space. Zaha Hadid Architects incorporate Roca's rich history and innovation culture into the 1100 m2 interior, presenting a selection of the newest and most emblematic Roca products while offering a meeting place for architects and designers from around the world to share and exchange knowledge. The multi-functional space hosts a rolling programme of cultural exhibitions and events on a variety of themes within the fields of architecture, design and sustainability. The Roca London Gallery forms part of Roca’s global network of detection, development and dissemination of new trends in these sectors.
A unique and flexible interior, designed by the world renowned Zaha Hadid Architects
From the ripples of the façade to the multi-functional spaces within, the movement of water is the overriding theme in the Zaha Hadid architecture of Roca London Gallery. The sculpted interior includes more than 200 unique concrete panels, which, along with 1209 bespoke porcelain floor tiles, define the product display environments. Meanwhile, the iconic pod lighting design highlights the fluid and continuous surfaces of the central axis, around which the Roca London Gallery revolves.
A programme of inspiring and thought-provoking exhibitions and events on the topics of architecture and design
Roca London Gallery works with high profile curators to present topical exhibitions and events that reflect Roca’s culture of innovation. Influential figures from the worlds of architecture and design have spoken at the gallery and presented their work, including Kengo Kuma, Lord Foster and Daniel Libeskind.
An inimitable Roca showroom space that presents the most emblematic products of the brand
More than 200 individual bathroom products from Roca, Laufen and Armani/Roca are displayed within the distinctive architecture, including an interactive shower display, also designed by Zaha Hadid Architects. Learn more about our products and their origin through a series of interactive digital elements, that together, present the quintessential bathroom experience.
More than just a physical space, the Roca Gallery concept expresses Roca's current situation and its future challenges. Based around the values of design, innovation, and sustainability, the Roca Galleries demonstrate the brand's desire for an ongoing dialogue with society as a whole and, most particularly, with the professionals who share its concern and interest in the evolution of the bathroom space. The Roca Galleries aim to provide a meeting point for dialogue open to designers, architects, and interior designers around the world. The Galleries in Barcelona, Madrid, Lisbon, London, Shanghai, and Beijing offer a platform for the exchange of multidisciplinary knowledge, making up a global network for the detection, interpretation, development, and promotion of new trends in the industry. OAB (Oficina de Arquitectura de Barcelona), Lamela Arquitectos in Madrid, Ferruz Decoradors in Lisbon, Zaha Hadid Architects in London, Francesc Rifé Studio in Shanghai, and MAD Architects in Beijing, have given this vision form in venues that combine attractive aesthetics with brand attributes.
