Spanish term or phrase: reserva técnica
This is from a press release announcing the launch of construction of a new cultural space in the outskirts of Buenos Aires:

Malba Puertos se erige a partir de un gran techo transparente de 2.000 m2, apoyado sobre tres pabellones que contienen: una sala de exposiciones con recepción, aula infantil y servicios (500 m2), una reserva técnica de obras de arte con administración, tienda y café (470 m2)...
I am seeing technical reserve on the web mostly in relation to insurance. Could this be a storage space of "backroom"?
Thanks

Explanation:
Often seen in a museum context
Although here it seems to be more than a storage area.

Los objetos pertenecientes a la colección del museo que no se exhiben en sus salas, se mantienen resguardados en una sala técnica con cuidados especiales.

El museo habilitó uno de los espacios del edificio que funciona como reserva de bienes culturales. Se podrá realizar la visita y así conocer los cuidados que tiene el equipo del museo para conservar el patrimonio.

The Repository as Museum Space
Profile image of Sandro DebonoSandro Debono
2021, Beni culturali - dai depositi alla valorizzazione: Modi, forme, esperienze, norme'. Proceedings of the conference held in Catania (Sicily, February 2020)

This paper seeks to present the ways and means how museum repositories can become alternative and complementary objects-based resources in their own right. My discussion presents a broad overview of the ways and means how the repository idea has evolved in recent times. I also discuss the potential bespoke experiences that may, on one hand, continue to be grounded in the traditional function and purpose of the repository albeit, on the other hand, more empowered by technology, the ambition to democratise and empower accessibility.
