The architectural design of the museum emphasizes Spain’s leading role in the olive oil industry, as the country remains the world’s largest producer. Serving as a museum, cultural center, and mill, the space merges Spanish artistic culture with the ancestral expertise surrounding olive oil production.

An important feature of the museum is the integration of Tecfire’s Steelfire STB80 Walkable Skylight System, a cutting-edge product that enhances both aesthetics and fire safety. The Walkable Skylight allows natural light to flood the museum’s interior, illuminating exhibits while providing a safe, durable, and non-slip surface. This skylight system complies with strict European safety and fire protection regulations, bearing live loads of up to 5000kg/sq m. Certified to meet the REI (Integrity, Insulation & Load Bearing Capacity) fire classification, it offers up to 120 minutes of fire resistance, making it both practical and innovative.

Philippe Starck’s vision, combined with advanced technology like the STB80 Walkable Skylight System, makes the Almazara Museum not only a tribute to Spain’s olive oil industry but also a beacon of modern design and engineering excellence. Visitors can expect a unique experience as they explore the museum’s displays while walking across a beautifully lit, cutting-edge floor system that seamlessly blends functionality with aesthetic appeal.
