l&e house | porto | portugal  
2011 | 2015 with sara almeida

This house on Rua dos Combatentes da Grande Guerra reflects nearly a century of layered construction, with additions spanning from the 1920s to the late 20th century. The intervention aimed to bring coherence and unity to the fragmented structure, transforming it into a fluid, contemporary home.
By reorganizing spaces, clarifying circulation, and introducing new relationships between interior and exterior, the project redefines the way the house is inhabited, bridging its architectural past with present-day living.
