The interest in portuguese architecture is the sensibility for everything, for the territory, for the place, for the light, and portuguese manner of working is unic, becouse they are no t abble to do monters, like big metroploies out of scales, is not being behind, is being human, caracteristic very rare in our days in the world, where it looks the drawing or a huge scale, or awful aberrations that can destroy an whole city. In New York is history and the fact of being in an island was abble to have a massive huge constrution, and few are the places like that. And the portuguese work, more than letting in the world is mark, is to know to read the place and search for what the place asks.

@donedone “…I don’t think anyone knows how far behind Portuguese architecture really is…”

[...] The House at Janeles, minimalist in it’s style, was a reconstruction of a nineteenth century house. As work progressed it turned out that the only usable parts of the structure where the two sidewalls. (via) [...]

Why is it that, when criticizing one particular building designed by any given portugese architect, detractors need to speak about Siza and the whole portugese architecture? Unless, of course, you’re a portugese and wished for being, let’s say, in Dubai, or maybe in China. Look at Odris, he just didn’t like it… actually, I think Odris’ comment was way deeper and more meaningful than the one from donedone.

Derrr…. I have never designed anything myself. Have no idea about the process. Duh, and really hate the unoriginal Herman Miller Chair. And derrrr…… really think the Portugese are behind. Because in architecture, behind means obsolete. And derrrr, I am very critical without any ability to derrrr articulate a real point except what the media has fed me derrrrr. Blot!

I think this is well done and sensible at that. Maybe a little too minimalistic, but it’s not like that can be changed with interior paint, texture, etc. Quite tranquil, but a little on the boring side. I still love this though.

that is all.

this is just stupid…boring…redundant
Like almost all Portuguese architecture, white Siza wannabes

Oh, and the Herman Miller chair…very original, really nice

it’s funny because I don’t think anyone knows how far behind Portuguese architecture really is, except for the Portuguese themselves.

Excelent PRoject!

Now, my only 2 cents, would be be:

1- No need for doors between the kitchen and the living room, just leave both hallways open, it would emphasize the idea of the floating central service core.

2-In the same aidea, I would had placed the kitchen agains the bathroom, again, making it really a central service core.

Wonderful project, great piece of refurbishment! Kudos to the architect, it would be great to have some more detail drawings and maybe photos of small details.

I really like this structure I like the way the windows and internal walls have striking corners and the way the light reflects off them with white walls and wood floors it is a great example of good residential architecture.

The design firm does some interesting projects. I really like the design sensibility of Portugese, Brazilian (Latin etc.) contemporary architects. They incorporate natural materials effectively into very liveable homes. This one is more on the minimalist side though, but still very aproachable…
