Housing Project, Lavra
The house is located in Lavra, Matosinhos. The project was developed for a couple who longed for a home that met their needs for privacy and outdoor space.
The proposed intervention was based on the creation of a contemporary architectural language, enhancing the existing surroundings and integrating it into the building complex. The proposed street-facing volume corresponds to that of the original building, maintaining the alignments and some structural elements.
The one-bedroom house is located solely on the ground floor, facing the garden, utilizing the attic for an additional living space with views of the landscape and the sea.
The proposed extension forms an L-shaped polygon, with the kitchen facing east and the living room and bedroom facing south. This layout allows for an outdoor living area that fosters a constant dialogue between the different spaces of the house.
