Housing in Beco dos Apóstolos
Residentials
Lisbon, PT - 2008
950 m2
Completed
This is a project to rehabilitate a six-storey building, located in the Alley of the Apostles, near the Cais do Sodré in Lisbon. The project is characterized by the complete recovery of the housing building, with maintenance of its volume, facade height and coverage, as well as in the composition of its elevations and the use of the same constructive solutions. The building consists of six dwellings, two of which are on the ground floor with connection to the exterior through two large wooden doors. Another four houses are organized in duplex typology and occupy the 1st and 2nd floor and the 3rd and 4th correspondingly.
Its rehabilitation aimed to improve its functionality and habitability conditions, simplifying the existing interior geometry, allowing a greater balance, coherence and rationality in the organization of spaces. To this end, a number of walls were built to form interior compartments in order to obtain larger living areas and eliminate existing unventilated spaces. In the general treatment of the facades there was the concern to maintain the coherence of the existing architectural language, recovering its language.
