House Campo de Ourique / Atelier Pupa

Pilar Caballero — Fri, 18 Nov 2022 14:00:00 +0000

The Project House Campo de Ourique aims to recover an apartment that, thanks to the development of the city and its modern requirements, saw the rise from both sides of two new buildings with garages. At that moment the very history of that neighborhood was unknown, demonstrating clear marks of the times of construction and metamorphosis that define it.

Located in Oporto city centre, the four apartments that were part of a building with a very characteristic moth of downtown Oporto, had unique and charming characteristics. The detailed ceilings, sloping roofs, the balconies with a view and the iron guards were part of an inspiring set (the skylight of the glass roof was the striking element of the building common area).

The apartment located in the characteristic Alvalade district of the '40s has an area of 48 m2, which became a challenge for a project aimed at creating a two-bedroom apartment with an expansion of the existing room.

Apartment in Restelo / Atelier Pupa

Pilar Caballero — Tue, 20 Aug 2019 09:00:00 +0000

The existing apartment, which was inherited by the clients, kept the original design, with a layout characterised by sucupira floors and arch-shaped dark wooden doors and compartmentalized spaces. All these elements translated into a dark space, despite the sizeable existing spans.

Apartment in Rua do Arco to São Mamede / Atelier Pupa

Pilar Caballero — Tue, 09 Jul 2019 16:00:00 +0000

The apartment that was subject to the intervention is located in a building from the 19th Century, located in Príncipe Real. It is characterized by a structure made up of partition walls, worked ceilings, glazed tiles and original floors. The focus of the project was mainly the kitchen, although the apartment was all painted over, doors and openings recovered, as were the floors.

Apartment In Benfica / Atelier Pupa

Daniel Tapia — Fri, 25 Jan 2019 16:00:00 +0000

The original apartment had a characteristic structure of the time, with a long corridor for the distribution of the different spaces, quite compartmentalized. The customer's only requirements were to maintain the existing T2 typology and to respect the budget ceiling - one of the project's challenges. The first thing that made sense in an area-constrained apartment consisted of "dissolving" the long corridor that marked the spatial organization - functioning as the skeleton of the house - and giving it a function.
