Venture in Lisbon, Portugal reworked a conventional home right into a harmonious area celebrating nature and significant connections. Situated within the Marvila neighborhood, the home initially featured a typical façade and interiors disconnected from the plush rear backyard. Designed by Atelier José Andrade Rocha, reimagined the house by including a contemporary extension that bridges the indoors and open air, fostering a way of neighborhood and interplay with nature.
The road-facing façade of the home was preserved to take care of its historic attraction, whereas the rear was utterly reimagined with a light-filled extension. This addition consists of glass sliding doorways, making a seamless move between the open-plan lounge, eating space, kitchen, and the revamped backyard. Open air, a thoughtfully organized lounge space and eating area invite rest and gatherings, whereas the shoppers’ vegetable backyard and climbing crops infuse life and shade into the pristine white partitions.
Inside, the design celebrates a up to date aesthetic with a pure twist. We used acquainted supplies in unconventional methods—similar to inexperienced oil-treated wooden for panels, doorways, and choose furnishings, which ties along with the inexperienced kitchen cupboards, couch, and the hanging spiral staircase. A balanced palette of inexperienced, vibrant orang, and pure tones echoes the encompassing setting: the sky, blooming flowers, and verdant forests. To reinforce the tactile expertise, the designers included textured wooden, Sintra limestone, and muted industrial-style flooring.
The result’s a house that not solely enhances each day dwelling but in addition celebrates the connection between its inhabitants, their shared experiences, and the pure world simply past their doorways. Pictures© Francisco Ascensão.
