This house reimagines a century-old dwelling through a careful process of restoration and reinvention, another chapter in the ongoing dialogue between heritage and contemporary living envisioned by Ricardo Azevedo Arquitecto. Originally built at the beginning of the 20th century, the house underwent a thoughtful restoration that sought not only to preserve its historical integrity but also to enhance its warmth and intimacy through a renewed architectural language.
The project’s core idea was to expose the building’s essence, the natural stone walls that once defined its structure and the robust wooden elements that now guide its interior atmosphere. Unlike its neighboring counterpart, this home embraces a softer and more organic approach to light, which filters gently through the spaces, reflecting off timber and stone to create an environment of serenity and comfort. Natural light and visual transparency were key to this balance, allowing the house to open itself to the surrounding landscape.
The renovation respected the original façade and core structural features, integrating them with new materials that bring a contemporary sensibility without erasing the past. This project, in many ways, represents a continuation of an architectural exploration: while the earlier house served as an experimental “laboratory,” this one stands as its refined outcome, a more grounded, mature expression of the same pursuit for dialogue between time, matter, and light.
