This housing block situated on the western part of Porto, in front of the Atlantic ocean is a conceptual reinvention of the traditional urban houses of the XVIII century. Instead of a stone structure, here the structure is in steel but is completely visible and separated from the other elements. But at the same time there are traditional materials that were used on the faēades, transposing the modern architecture into a more site related project.
