Other Projects by EXTRASTUDIO
Fugas Lusas
5, Largo Doutor Francisco Soveral, Setúbal, Portugal
EXTRASTUDIO has completed FUGAS LUSAS, a
Delicatessen/ Café in Setúbal, Portugal. Set on the historical
district in Setúbal, the project insists on customization in order
to create unique spatial or material qualities. Taking advantage of
low-tech traditional materials used side-by side with technological
processes EXTRASTUDIO has been addressing the creation of a specific
material universe as a key element in each project.
Commissioned by a young Economics professor to
develop a concept for a Portuguese delicacies shop that would also
work as a café, the project represents an effort to revitalize the
historical district of Setúbal, creating a new meeting point in the
city. Combining two complementary functions required the creation of
a unique space, one that should be as extraordinary as the products
the client was proposing to sell and as cozy as a neighborhood café.
The construction works started with the opening of a
large window front, exposing the café to the square, as a preview
for the future terrace. New shelves were carved on the thick exterior
walls to display a wide range of products. The bar, clad with typical
Portuguese ceramic tiles, divides the working areas from the public
space. In the ceiling, laser cut plywood panels; duplicate the
pattern used on the counter tiled walls. The furniture is composed by
a set of used hardwood chairs from the old assembly room of Setúbal’s
Fish Industry Union, together with tables with marble tops from
Alentejo.
