The project, licensed in 2019, is located in Arroios, Lisbon, Portugal, in an area of dense urban tissue.
The pre-existing apartment was located on the top floor of the building, under a large unused attic with no access.
The intention of the project was to change the roof, maintaining its original configuration and inclination, introducing a recessed floor and dormer windows, all of balanced proportions – very characteristic features in this area.
In this way, we were able to give a new life to the unused and forgotten space and create a duplex apartment with a recessed terrace area integrated in the roof, hidden from the public roads and with a stunning view over the city of Lisbon.
