Article source: A2OFFICE® This project consists of the renovation of São Roque, a restaurant with tradition in the city of Vila do Conde but that was closed since some years ago. The aim was to change the concept of the restaurant, creating a new dining room, which should take a more contemporary and warm character.  Image Courtesy © AL.MA

The existing ceiling was demolished and then applied sound absorption panels and a new final coating on wooden slatted that allows, besides the harmonious connection between existing materials, to cut the reverberation in space.  Image Courtesy © AL.MA Through the slatted comes the lighting lamps in retro style with a warm tone of light, which contrasts with the neutral colors that cover the walls and floor. The original ceramic floor was covered with a new deck with excellent acoustic properties.  Image Courtesy © AL.MA It was applied a set of black tubes that create the necessary division of spaces without closing them. In this sense, there are two distinct areas in the room: one that pointed to a bench filled with pads on a more intimate setting, and the other occupied by a high table supported in the windowsill, relating to, through this, with the small square and the facade of the Chapel of São Roque, which gives its name to the restaurant.
