Located in Oporto´s Foz do Douro area it has East / West orientation and is inserted in an urban area in consolidation next to the Atlantic Ocean.

The design of the balconies directs the visual framing to the Atlantic Ocean, also allowing the large opening windows to extend the social areas from the interior to the exterior. Gondarém street contains mainly residential buildings with continuous façades and leafy trees. We´ve adjusted our project volumetry to that delineated by the contiguous buildings. Regarding the design language we explored a visual of fine contours, being the main material the dark colored concrete with a texture that extends to the wood elements complemented with vegetation.
