A beautiful holiday house
is born from
old ruins
Cream azulejos with
cobalt blue carved band were applied in the kitchen. The pinewood furniture
has a honey tone overpainting so as to look rustic as the false ceiling,
also in pinewood.

The bathroom azulejos are of the same tone but with manganese carved
sprinkle and ornamental band of the same tone. The cupboard is also pinewood,
including top. A Red Cedar overpainting was applied to the cupboard so the
tone would match with manganese. The mirror was inlayed in the azulejos
and decorated with a manganese band. On the entrance floor a false pinewood
ceiling was built in, with halogen spots for more comfort.

Industrial pavement tiles were applied throughout the house, including
the large balconies built in several plans, that were finished with bottle
green metallic bars, guaranteeing security without concealing the magnificent
landscape, and the ground surrounding the house with the same design as
the balconies. Since the house is fairly isolated due to its situation,
all doors and windows have either fixed or sliding protection bars. The
outside windows are in lacquered aluminium (Anodil BW).
The roof is in Portuguese ceramic roofing tiles. The thermal insulation
of the roof was obtained through extruded polyesterene. All available spaces
of the house were used including the empty space under the kitchen that
is now storage room.
