Restelo 22

Spacemakers studio was invited for the remodeling and expansion project of a family house. It was also responsible for the interior design and decoration project.
The house belongs to one of the original bands of houses in Bairro do Restelo. The work included the expansion of the existing building area as well as the almost total demolition of the existing construction (interior and rear facade). However, the main façade was kept intact, preserving its character as a semi-detached house.
The main concept of the project consists in giving the staircase a spatial centrality around which a game between five intermediate floors is developed in order to respect the client's program and combine the different altimetries between the front and back areas of the parcel.
The new layout was designed to share social spaces, where the main entrance, the living room, the outdoor garden area and the swimming pool became communicating and visually continued.
The focus on quality materials and original architectural solutions, and a sophisticated decoration with many custom solutions developed by our studio, make this house a true signature project.
