Full recovery of a ruined building.

A garden transformation and creation of a pool on the roof of a silo to accommodate the required program. The turrets and main facade are restored in all their glory.

The private space of the back part of the building is of a more intimate nature, reminding a farm and enjoying the peacefulness of the garden.

The program involves the recovery of six buildings for Local Accommodation, located on a hillside next to the Douro River, offering open views and proximity to the historic center. The architectural design focuses on a housing program, where multiple units are carefully arranged to maximize the available space. Due to the steep slope of the land, patios and hanging gardens were created, with construction planned to optimize the view.
