Context

This project involved the full renovation of an apartment in central Lisbon, Portugal, with the goal of adapting it to the daily use of a family with two children. The intervention reorganised the existing layout, clarifying circulation and creating flexible spaces capable of accommodating different uses over time.

Family Programme

The new programme included a private master suite for the couple, two children's bedrooms, a dedicated children's bathroom, a guest WC and a hybrid office space, easily convertible into a guest room.

Living Area and Kitchen

The living room and kitchen now function as an open-plan space with direct access to the terrace. The kitchen was designed as a central everyday area, incorporating a dining table, a bar zone, ceiling-height storage and a pantry.

Storage and Multifunctional Elements

Custom-made furniture solutions were developed to maximise storage and circulation, including integrated wardrobes in circulation zones and an entrance hall unit that acts as a spatial divider.
