The Grand Depart Barcelone collection draws inspiration from the Eixample district, a symbol of modernity and visionary urban planning. Its design interprets the iconic grid system conceived in the 19th century by Ildefons Cerda, characterized by regular blocks, wide avenues and distinctive chamfered, octagonal intersections.
Originally conceived to promote airflow, light and mobility, this urban structure is translated into a clean, contemporary graphic language. Architecture, history and cycling converge in a design that is structured, dynamic and rich in meaning: a tribute to Barcelona's progressive spirit and the opening chapter of the Tour de France.
