With over 100 years old and originally built in the typical 'gaioleiro' style of the time, a profound restoration of the building was undertaken to preserve what could still be recovered and enhance its architecture.

Due to its derelict condition, it was necessary to demolish the entire interior core in order to restore structural safety and sanitation conditions. However, this was always done with the goal of maintaining the building's character and its pre-existing residential structure, as well as the materials and decorative elements that connect it to its era and history.

In order to improve the habitability of the attic floor, a single sloping roof was retained in alignment with the neighboring structure, replicating the three lower openings and transforming into 'mansard windows.' Additionally, on the main facade, the original wooden entrance door was restored, as it was a unique element worth preserving.

Inside, in response to the need to reconstruct the staircase core, it was advantageous to rotate this core 90 degrees and place it against the back wall while maintaining the same design and dimensions. This was done to maximize the available space at the front of the building, which is the only part with windows. This approach allowed for more functional, balanced rooms with greater exposure to natural light.
