On the border between nature and the urban fabric of Cascais, The Principado emerges as an ode to the harmony between architecture and landscape.
A project defined by serenity, where every line was drawn to respect time, place, and memory.

The building unfolds in symmetry, like a mirror, creating a balanced composition that allows for an efficient organization of spaces and a clear reading of its geometry. The façades are clad in vertical slats made of corten steel profiles, which not only add elegance and rhythm but also offer privacy by delicately filtering light and views.

The garden is an extension of the interiors: the ground-floor units open fully to the outdoors, transforming the experience of living into a continuous gesture between the built and the natural. On the upper floors, the penthouses elevate everyday life with cantilevered pools, outdoor fireplaces, private saunas, and expansive views over the coastline. Every detail—from the spiral staircase to the private elevator—has been designed to blend comfort, functionality, and beauty.

The Principado is a spatial narrative, where architecture makes room for life to unfold in freedom and contemplation.

In the heart of Estoril, just steps away from Tamariz Beach and the Casino Gardens, Essence is born: a residential development where architecture and landscape intertwine with fluidity and sophistication.

Set on a south-facing hillside, the project takes advantage of the land’s natural slope to create a unique spatial dynamic — with villas positioned at the higher elevations and apartments located near the base, in direct dialogue with the city’s more traditional and close-knit urban fabric. This topography offers open views of the coastline and sea, while ensuring privacy and privileged sun exposure.

Comprising a range of typologies, the development combines the intimacy of units with private gardens with the lightness of apartments that open onto the horizon. The architecture, defined by the simplicity of its volumes and the nobility of its materials — stone, wood, glass — presents a refined language that blends seamlessly into the landscape.

The shared spaces — lobby, gym, gourmet lounge, and infinity pool — extend the living experience, bridging interior and exterior while reinforcing the project’s exclusive character.

Each space has been designed to embrace the light, the sea, and the passing of time — in a subtle balance between elegance and everyday living.

In the heart of Bairro da Martinha, in Estoril, the extension of this single-family home builds upon a modest pre-existing structure to give way to a contemporary house where past and present meet in subtle coexistence.

The intervention is organized into three articulated volumes: the original core, preserved as a reference to the site’s memory, and two extension wings to the north and south, which respond to the programmatic needs and the trapezoidal shape of the plot. This fragmented composition allows the new construction to integrate into the existing urban fabric, engaging with the surrounding block’s alignments and heights, which are marked by buildings from various periods.

The house is distributed over three floors, with a technical basement, a social area on the ground floor — designed with varied floor levels — and a master suite on the upper floor. The structure follows the natural slope of the land, ensuring thermal comfort, natural light, and a direct connection to the south- and west-facing garden.

Materials such as stone, wood, and white plaster, combined with a palette of natural tones and clean lines, create a serene and luminous atmosphere. Inside, the high ceilings, large windows, and handcrafted details — like ceramics and exposed beams — enhance the connection between the living space and the surrounding landscape.

More than a transformation, this project seeks to reveal. A house that respects the history of the place while making room for a new life.

Tucked into a compact plot in Manique, Casa Paz is an exercise in balance — between proportion, light, and restraint. A single-family home that, despite its modest scale, unfolds across three levels — basement, ground floor, and first floor — articulating daily life with the natural surroundings in a fluid and thoughtful way.

The house makes full use of its orientation and its relationship with the garden, creating generous outdoor areas to the south and west, seamlessly connecting to a larger rural plot that will eventually become an orchard. This extended connection to the landscape allows the home to visually expand beyond its physical boundaries.

Inside, the open-plan layout and expressive use of wood ensure thermal comfort, visual continuity, and a serene atmosphere. A palette of earthy tones and natural materials brings the outdoors in, merging living and landscape into a single experience.

The basement, with an independent entrance, houses a painting studio, laundry area, and storage, enabling functional autonomy. On the ground floor, the kitchen and living room coexist in a single gesture, opening directly to the terrace and garden. Upstairs, two en-suite bedrooms share a common balcony, designed to capture the morning light and frame views of the expanded garden.

Above all, this is a quiet home. A refuge where architecture remains discreet yet precise — carefully measured to transform every square meter into a luminous and truly livable space.

50_24 Parque dos Pilotos is a competition aimed at revitalizing the Loures area with an innovative park that embraces the region’s natural beauty while promoting sustainability. The site, offering breathtaking views of the Tagus River, has been designed with eco-friendly construction techniques that preserve local flora and fauna, enhancing both the environment and the community.

In addition, the park is located near a future residence for pilots, creating a unique synergy between the two projects. Our vision integrates leisure spaces with a tribute to Portugal’s rich aviation history, drawing inspiration from key milestones like the 1540 flight attempt by João Torto and the first transatlantic flight in 1922. This project not only honors Portugal’s aviation pioneers but also reflects a forward-thinking, sustainable approach to urban development, celebrating the past while projecting a greener, more innovative future for Loures.

Located in Abuxarda, this contemporary single-family house is arranged over three floors — two above ground level and one below — making full use of the steep slope of the site. The topography thus becomes the driving force behind the project, allowing the architecture to unfold across different levels, both indoors and outdoors, creating a dynamic and continuous spatial experience.

The layout prioritises abundant natural light and fluidity between spaces, enhanced by large glazed surfaces that dissolve the boundaries between interior and exterior. This relationship is reinforced by the visual and functional continuity between the house, garden and swimming pool, promoting an integrated living experience connected to the surrounding landscape.

In formal terms, the project is based on simple, clearly defined volumes, whose earthy tones contribute to its harmonious integration into the natural setting. Inside, the staircase is the central feature of the house, conceived as a sculptural element connecting the different levels. Its presence, complemented by an organically designed balustrade, creates a fluid transition between spaces, acting as the connecting axis and unifying element throughout the house.

This mixed-use residential and commercial building is located in the heart of Estoril. The project revitalises the existing, outdated structure, transforming it into a contemporary development comprising three floors, an attic and a basement.

Designed to blend seamlessly with the surrounding historic neighbourhood, the building combines elegant architectural lines with glazed façades and balconies that offer stunning views and abundant natural light.

The ground floor accommodates a commercial space featuring a contemporary façade and an extensive basement area. The upper floors comprise two high-end residential units: a spacious two-bedroom apartment measuring 144.59 m² and a bright duplex apartment with three bedrooms, spanning 216.03 m².

All spaces are distinguished by premium finishes, meticulous attention to detail and an abundance of natural light, creating refined and inviting contemporary living environments.

The project seeks to deliver modern, sophisticated spaces while preserving and enhancing the architectural charm and distinctive character of Monte Estoril.

This single-family residential project proposes a contemporary approach to residential architecture, where formal simplicity, functionality and attention to detail play a central role. The composition of the volumes and the spatial organisation seek to establish a balanced relationship between aesthetics and comfort, enhancing natural light and the fluidity of everyday living.

The integration with the surrounding context and the carefully selected materials contribute to a coherent and timeless architectural language, in which each element responds to the demands of contemporary living.

This project concerns a residential development set on a 6,940 sqm plot, comprising twenty units across two terraced multi-family residential buildings, with two distinct typologies (townhouses to the north and collective housing to the south).

Developed with an urban planning approach that prioritizes its integration with the surrounding environment, the proposal establishes a transitional solution between the terraced houses to the north and the multi-family residential building. The transition between these two distinct realities, achieved through the articulation of spaces, reflects a contemporary architectural and volumetric language, essential to ensuring the appropriate integration of the development into its surroundings.

Natural materials such as stone and wood predominate, creating pleasant spaces both inside and outside the homes.

A project designed for comfort, where convenience takes center stage. Featuring modern architecture, its 722 sqm are spread across three floors, with generous openings that bring in unique natural light. This is an approach to everyday living that is functional, sophisticated, and understated. The selection of high-quality materials provides the sublime finishing touch, embracing you amidst the rugged, abundant landscape of the Sintra mountains and the coastal scenery, breathing in the fresh sea air.

This project comprises a residential development of 13 units, set on a 4,676.65 sqm plot. The project consists of two-storey terraced houses arranged in a row. This arrangement creates a volumetric interplay of solids and voids, promoting privacy within the various rooms while creating a series of recessed courtyards that invite the use of large openings, ideal for the ground-floor social areas.

This project in Birre, a quiet and well-located residential neighbourhood, is a contemporary response to the urban context, balancing serenity and accessibility, ideal for homes that prioritise comfort and privacy.

The project consists of two semi-detached four-bedroom houses, designed over three floors, two of which are above ground. The architecture has a contemporary, minimalist language, with pure, geometric forms. The choice of materials, such as neutral-toned render and grey stone, contributes to a sober and elegant aesthetic, ensuring durability and easy maintenance. The absence of traditional roofs reinforces the modernity of the whole, emphasising the horizontal lines and discreetly integrating the houses into the urban fabric. Each unit has a private swimming pool and an exclusive garden, giving residents a high-quality outdoor space that engages directly with the interior areas.

Inside, the houses were designed with a focus on functionality and comfort, without sacrificing aesthetics. All the bedroom suites, located on the upper floors, benefit from large openings that ensure excellent natural light, promoting a sense of well-being. The social areas, such as the living room and kitchen, were designed as open-plan spaces, creating a spatial continuity enhanced by the choice of high-quality materials and finishes, always in keeping with the exterior architectural language. Every detail has been carefully considered to create an environment that, while minimalist, is welcoming and conducive to contemporary family life.

Completed in 2021, this architectural project reflects a contemporary approach to housing, where functionality, formal simplicity and urban integration play a central role. The proposal seeks to establish a balanced relationship between the organisation of the spaces and their surroundings, through a refined architectural language, marked by clarity of form and attention to detail. The way the different elements of the project interact contributes to a coherent composition, enhancing the identity of the whole and responding to the demands of contemporary life.

Architectural design for the construction of a single-family residence with a swimming pool, set on a 2,154 sqm plot and comprising a four-bedroom unit. The design is defined by two oblique volumes in complete harmony. A premium private residence with a distinctive architectural language, featuring a striking upper volume that appears to float above the second block and the terrain, creating an interplay of solids and voids that enhances the overall composition.

Sophisticated and distinctive details include 49 large glazed openings, organic staircases with a contemporary design, and imposing gardens that fully respect the natural profile of the terrain. Porous concrete pathways create multiple routes, providing safe and comfortable access between the interior and exterior spaces.

This project comprises a residential development of approximately 2,000 sqm, consisting of five similar villas, each with a private swimming pool, located in Murches, Cascais. The project proposes orienting each villa and its living spaces towards the south, ensuring privacy for each unit while providing thermal comfort.

Each villa is distributed over two floors, with the ground floor accommodating the common areas and the upper floor comprising three suites and a large terrace. The architectural composition consists of two distinct volumes connected by a third volume, which serves as a circulation area. Externally, each villa features a swimming pool with a barbecue and lounge area, as well as a covered garage and two uncovered parking spaces.

The residential complex stands out for its use of high-quality natural materials, such as stone and wood, incorporated throughout both the interior and exterior finishes.

Cenáculo is  a project involving the rehabilitation of over 2,300 sqm of a religious architectural complex in the renowned city of Fátima. The design is characterized by contemporary, simple volumes that emphasize humility and tranquility, bridging the past and future through minimalistic lines. The green spaces surrounding the structures, as depicted in the 3D working model images, are also a key element of this project, enhancing its spiritual dimension.

This project is located on a plot of approximately 320 sqm, with the existing building accommodating both residential and commercial uses. The intervention focuses on recreating its original appearance, while respecting the historical and heritage context of the surrounding area. An analysis of the original Chalet Sagres revealed distinctive characteristics and elements of Portuguese Summer Architecture, which we aim to restore and enhance, as they are considered important references to the historical and cultural identity of the municipality, particularly along the avenue where the building is located.

At the same time, it became necessary to introduce changes that would ensure the highest standards of urban quality, while adapting the residential typologies to contemporary needs. The proposal maintains the building’s existing uses, while expanding the residential area and thereby reinforcing the predominantly residential character of the property, while preserving the existing commercial space.

The project is set on a 1,190 sqm plot and is based on a dialogue between mineral and vegetal elements. It primarily seeks to highlight the residential floor, arranged in an L-shaped plan, allowing the surrounding vegetation to embrace the house.

The landscape design prioritizes the various tree species already present on the site, with some being transplanted to harmonize their distribution, creating a cohesive relationship between the vegetation and the residence.

Located in Estoril, this architectural project, developed in 2017, reflects a contemporary approach to residential design, based on the interplay between volume, functionality and integration into the surroundings. With a construction area of 630 m², the proposal seeks to strike a balance between architectural expression and the organisation of space, enhancing formal coherence and attention to detail. The intervention conveys a vision of contemporary living in which architecture, materiality and the relationship with the context contribute to a distinct, timeless and balanced identity.

The residence is set on a plot of approximately 2,140 sqm and is designed as a single-family dwelling comprising six bedrooms. The eastern volume is organized across three floors, two above ground level and one below.

At basement level, the eastern volume accommodates storage areas and a garage with capacity for six vehicles and a boat. The ground floor, at entrance level, comprises an entrance hall with staircase and lift, a suite, gym, games room, and an indoor swimming pool with a sun terrace. The upper floor features a guest bathroom, office, and the private quarters of the residence, comprising three suites and a master suite with its own private garden.

The southern volume is arranged across two floors, with the lower level partially embedded into the ground. This level comprises a bedroom and bathroom with external access, a cinema room, and a guest bathroom connected to the upper floor. The upper floor accommodates the living and dining areas, kitchen, laundry room, and a small bathroom.

The outdoor areas include a lounge space with a barbecue and a dedicated swimming pool area.

Located in the heart of Monte Estoril, this office space benefits from a privileged setting and exclusive access through a landscaped garden, marked by a distinctive entrance. The renovation adopts a contemporary and minimalist aesthetic, maximizing natural light throughout the day, whether through the windows overlooking the newly designed Mediterranean garden or through the continuous skylight.

The space comprises a reception area, kitchenette, restrooms, waiting areas, meeting rooms, and coworking spaces, with areas ranging from 10 sqm to 21 sqm.

The residence is set on a plot of approximately 460 sqm within an approved subdivision. With a total area of approximately 190 sqm, the house is arranged across three floors, two above ground level and one below.

The ground floor is dedicated to the social areas, comprising a kitchen, guest bathroom, living and dining rooms, and an office. The upper floor accommodates two bedrooms served by a bathroom, as well as a suite. The basement provides parking for two vehicles, storage areas, technical spaces, and a laundry room.

Two existing pine trees in the outdoor area were preserved and integrated into the concept of the proposed garden. The landscape design also incorporates a swimming pool area with a surrounding deck. Access to the plot is provided from the west.

This single-family residence features a refined contemporary language, defined by pure volumes, abundant natural light and a seamless connection between interior and exterior. Large glazed openings and recessed balconies extend the living spaces towards the garden and swimming pool, while wood and stone create a sophisticated and welcoming atmosphere. A restrained architectural approach where light, materiality and landscape integration shape a contemporary living experience.

Na fronteira entre a natureza e a malha urbana de Cascais, o The Principado surge como uma ode à harmonia entre arquitetura e paisagem. Um projeto marcado pela serenidade, onde cada traço foi desenhado para respeitar o tempo, o lugar e as suas memórias.

O edifício desenha-se em simetria, como um espelho, criando uma composição equilibrada que permite uma organização eficaz dos espaços e uma leitura clara da sua geometria. As fachadas são revestidas por ripados verticais em perfis metálicos de aço corten, que não só conferem elegância e ritmo como oferecem privacidade, filtrando luz e vistas com delicadeza.

O jardim é uma extensão dos interiores: as frações térreas abrem-se completamente ao exterior, transformando a experiência de habitar num gesto contínuo entre o construído e o natural. Nos pisos superiores, as penthouses elevam o quotidiano, com piscinas em balanço, lareiras exteriores, saunas privadas e vistas amplas sobre a costa. Cada detalhe, da escada em espiral ao elevador privado, foi desenhado para conjugar conforto, funcionalidade e beleza.

O The Principado é uma narrativa espacial, onde a arquitetura deixa espaço para a vida acontecer em liberdade e contemplação.

No coração do Estoril, a poucos passos da Praia do Tamariz e dos Jardins do Casino, nasce o Essence: um conjunto residencial onde arquitetura e paisagem se entrelaçam com fluidez e sofisticação.

Implantado numa encosta voltada a sul, o projeto tira partido do declive natural do terreno para criar uma dinâmica espacial única — com as moradias situadas nas cotas mais elevadas e os apartamentos localizados junto à base, em diálogo direto com a malha urbana mais tradicional e bairrista da cidade. Essa topografia oferece vistas abertas sobre a costa e o mar, ao mesmo tempo que garante privacidade e exposição solar privilegiada.

Distribuído por diferentes tipologias, o conjunto conjuga a intimidade de unidades com jardim privativo com a leveza de apartamentos abertos ao horizonte. A arquitetura, marcada pela simplicidade dos volumes e pela nobreza dos materiais — pedra, madeira, vidro — apresenta uma linguagem depurada, que se funde com a paisagem.

As áreas comuns — lobby, ginásio, gourmet lounge e infinity pool — expandem a experiência de habitar, prolongando o interior para o exterior e reforçando o carácter exclusivo do conjunto.

Cada espaço foi pensado para acolher a luz, o mar e o tempo — num equilíbrio subtil entre elegância e vivência quotidiana.

Trata-se de um edifício de uso misto para fins residenciais e comerciais no coração do Estoril. Este novo edifício renova a estrutura existente, já desatualizada, num projeto com 3 andares, um sótão e um subsolo. O projeto foi pensado para se integrar perfeitamente à área histórica circundante, com fachadas de vidro e varandas que oferecem vistas deslumbrantes e luz natural.

O andar térreo abriga um espaço comercial com uma fachada moderna e uma ampla área de subsolo. Nos pisos superiores, encontram-se duas unidades residenciais de gama alta: um espaçoso apartamento de 144,59 m² com 2 quartos, e um luminoso apartamento duplex de 216,03 m2 com 3 quartos. Todos os espaços se caracterizam pelos acabamentos sofisticados e uma luz natural constante. Este projeto visa proporcionar espaços modernos para viver, ao mesmo tempo que valoriza o charme arquitetônico de Monte Estoril.

O presente projeto refere-se a um Condomínio Habitacional inserido num terreno com 6.940 m2, com vinte fogos, constituído por dois Edifícios de Habitação coletiva em banda, com duas tipologias distintas (moradias a Norte e Habitação coletiva a sul). Elaborado numa lógica urbanística com preocupação primordial pela sua melhor integração com a envolvente, resultou numa solução de compromisso/transição, entre as moradias em banda a Norte e o edifício de habitação coletiva. A transição entre estas duas realidades distintas, através da articulação de espaços, reflete uma linguagem arquitetónica e volumétrica contemporâneas, essencial para o correto enquadramento com a envolvente. Predominam os materiais naturais como a pedra ou a madeira, criando espaços agradáveis tanto no interior como no exterior das moradias.

Trata-se de um Condomínio Habitacional de 13 fogos, inserido num terreno com 4.676,65 m2. O projeto desenvolve-se em moradias unifamiliares de 2 pisos, dispostas em banda. Esta disposição surge como um jogo volumétrico de cheios e vazios, que promove a privacidade interior dos diversos compartimentos, criando um conjunto de pátios recuados convidando à abertura de vãos de grandes dimensões, ideais às áreas sociais do R/C.

Este projeto em Birre, um bairro residencial tranquilo e bem localizado, é uma resposta contemporânea ao contexto urbano, equilibrando serenidade e acessibilidade, ideal para moradias que privilegiam o conforto e a privacidade.

O projeto consiste em duas moradias geminadas de tipologia T4, concebidas em três pisos, dos quais dois estão acima do solo. A arquitetura apresenta uma linguagem contemporânea e minimalista, com formas puras e geométricas. A escolha de materiais, como o reboco em tons neutros e as pedras cinza, contribui para uma estética sóbria e elegante, garantindo durabilidade e fácil manutenção. A ausência de telhados tradicionais reforça a modernidade do conjunto, valorizando as linhas horizontais e integrando as moradias discretamente no tecido urbano. Cada unidade possui uma piscina privativa e um jardim exclusivo, proporcionando aos residentes um espaço exterior de qualidade, que dialoga diretamente com as áreas interiores.

No interior, as moradias foram desenhadas com foco na funcionalidade e no conforto, sem sacrificar a estética. Todas as suítes, distribuídas pelos pisos superiores, beneficiam de amplas aberturas que garantem excelente iluminação natural, promovendo uma sensação de bem-estar. As áreas sociais, como a sala de estar e a cozinha, foram projetadas em planta aberta, promovendo uma continuidade espacial acentuada pela escolha de materiais e acabamentos de alta qualidade, sempre em consonância com a linguagem arquitetónica exterior. Cada detalhe foi cuidadosamente pensado para criar um ambiente que, embora minimalista, é acolhedor e propício à vida familiar contemporânea.

Este projeto situa-se num terreno com cerca de 320 m2, tendo o edifício existente utilizações destinadas a habitação e comércio. Esta intervenção prende-se na recriação da imagem original, com enquadramento histórico e patrimonial do espaço em que se insere. Ao analisarmos o projeto original do Chalet Sagres, deparámo-nos com características e elementos da Arquitetura de Veraneio Portuguesa, que pretendemos recuperar e valorizar por se considerarem importantes referências de identidade histórica e patrimonial do concelho, com especial evidência na avenida em que se insere.

Em simultâneo, tornou-se necessário introduzir alterações que garantam os mais elevados padrões de qualidade urbanística, bem como a adequação das tipologias de habitação às necessidades da atualidade. A proposta manteve os usos do edifício, pretendendo ampliar a área destinada a habitação, reforçando-se, deste modo, a predominância do uso residencial deste espaço, mantendo a área de comércio existente.

Localizado no Estoril, este projeto de arquitetura, desenvolvido em 2017, reflete uma abordagem contemporânea ao desenho residencial, assente na articulação entre volumetria, funcionalidade e integração na envolvente. Com uma área de construção de 630 m², a proposta procura estabelecer um equilíbrio entre a expressão arquitetónica e a organização dos espaços, valorizando a coerência formal e a atenção ao detalhe. A intervenção traduz uma visão do habitar contemporâneo onde a arquitetura, a materialidade e a relação com o contexto contribuem para uma identidade própria, intemporal e equilibrada.

Este projeto refere-se a um condomínio habitacional composto por 24 fogos com duas piscinas no logradouro, estacionamento e arrecadações em cave comum. O terreno continha duas pré existências, o Chalet e a Cocheira. Nestes dois elementos a intervenção passou por total demolição do espaço interior e sua adequação às utilizações atuais, optando-se pela conservação das fachadas e demais elementos estruturais. A proposta desenvolve-se em todo o terreno numa relação harmoniosa entre as construções pré existentes e os novos edifícios.

Large glazed openings and recessed balconies extend the living spaces towards the garden and swimming pool, while wood and stone create a sophisticated and welcoming atmosphere. A restrained architectural approach where light, materiality and landscape integration shape a contemporary living experience.

Located in Quinta das Patinhas, this architectural project, developed in 2004, reflects a careful approach to the organisation of space and the integration of the building into its surroundings. Set on a plot of 1,442.21 m², the proposal includes a construction area of 350 m², complemented by an additional 150 m². The intervention seeks to strike a balance between functionality, architectural expression and the enhancement of the available space, highlighting the importance of a considered site layout and a coherent spatial organisation. A project that conveys an enduring vision of architecture, based on the relationship between place, construction and the needs of use.

Com uma localização privilegiada no coração do Monte Estoril, este espaço de escritórios destaca-se pelo acesso exclusivo, feito através de um jardim com uma entrada marcante. A renovação apresenta uma estética contemporânea e minimalista, aproveitando ao máximo a iluminação natural ao longo de todo o dia, seja pelas janelas voltadas para o novo jardim mediterrânico, seja pela claraboia contínua.

O espaço inclui receção, copa, instalações sanitárias, salas de espera, salas de reuniões e salas de coworking, com áreas entre 10 m² e 21 m².

50_24 Parque dos Pilotos é um concurso que visa revitalizar a área de Loures através da criação de um parque inovador que valoriza a beleza natural da região, promovendo simultaneamente a sustentabilidade. O local, com vistas deslumbrantes sobre o rio Tejo, foi concebido com técnicas de construção sustentáveis e ecológicas que preservam a flora e a fauna locais, contribuindo para a valorização do ambiente e da comunidade.

Além disso, o parque está localizado junto a uma futura residência para pilotos, criando uma sinergia única entre os dois projetos. A nossa visão integra espaços de lazer com uma homenagem à rica história da aviação em Portugal, inspirando-se em momentos marcantes como a tentativa de voo de João Torto, em 1540, e a primeira travessia aérea do Atlântico, em 1922.

Este projeto não só presta homenagem aos pioneiros da aviação portuguesa, como também reflete uma abordagem sustentável e visionária ao desenvolvimento urbano, celebrando o passado enquanto projeta um futuro mais verde e inovador para Loures.

Cenáculo é um projeto de reabilitação de mais de 2300 m² de um complexo arquitetónico religioso, na reconhecida cidade de Fátima. O desenho caracteriza-se por volumes contemporâneos e simples, que enfatizam a humildade e a tranquilidade, fazendo a ponte entre o passado e o futuro através de linhas minimalistas. Os espaços verdes que envolvem os edifícios, tal como se vê nas imagens do modelo de trabalho 3D, são também um elemento fundamental do projeto, reforçando a sua dimensão espiritual.
