Ajuda Housing

This project is very special to us.

First, because the client is special – enjoys architecture, understands our proposals and modifications, and above all, is enthusiastic with the project as much as we are!

The project builds:

– the spatial reorganization so as not to enter directly into the living-room, changing the entrance to walking through space, inside the kitchen space;

– the adequacy of the minimum standards of hygiene for the current parameters – increasing the area of the bathroom, endowing it with shower area, sink and natural light + ventilation;

– the maintenance of the facade elements, in materials with higher thermal efficiency;

– the correction of light through saturated color in the most interior spaces of the house – the kitchen and bathroom;

– The possibility of changing the spaces through sliding doors in translucent polycarbonate, which adds to the house a greater diversity of ways of inhabit.
