Arroios Apartment

TYPOLOGY
The apartment is part of a typical Lisbon old building. It’s long proportion produces a set of spaces on which the presence of natural light is the main challenge.

COURTYARD/GARDEN
The apartment is refurbished having the courtyard/garden as a central area that is totally open to the living room and adjacent spaces. The courtyard is the main source of natural light for the apartment.

CONTINUOUS SPACES
The continuity and flow between the common spaces of the apartment (living room, dining room and kitchen) is clearly felt by the absence of doors between these spaces. Transitions are felt by in-built furniture or by the memory of ancient doors.

ROOMS
The 3 bedrooms are redesigned and functionally more adequate to modern needs. The master bedroom becomes a suite with the private bathroom and the in-built closet

CLOSETS AND MULTIPLE STORAGE AREAS
Closets and unexpected areas of storage are in-built as a solution that optimizes space and takes close attention to every “dead” area in the apartment.

MODERN GLAZING
New windows area brought in to improve the acoustic and thermal conditions of the apartment.

HEATING
In-built natural gas heating system improves the thermal efficiency of the apartment.

EXTERIOR NATURAL WOOD DECK
The exterior natural wood deck is the perfect place for long afternoons and late evenings with friends and family.

COURTYARD/GARDEN POSSIBILITIES
The remaining area of the courtyard is open to be used for a green lawn or blue pool.
