FACTORY - Jardins EfanorSão Mamede de Infesta e Senhora da Hora, Matosinhos

The building in question is inserted in a condominium in Matosinhos with unique features in Portugal, has in its surroundings a private green park with about 2 ha.

Being a building fully occupied by small typologies T0 and T1, intended mainly for a youngsters, it was created some irreverence in the functional and aesthetic approach of the apartments.

Being the building characterized by small typologies T0 and T1, the biggest challenge of the project had to do with the concern of minimizing lost spaces inside the apartments, giving them a dynamic multipurpose space where all spaces communicate with each other, giving them a greater spatial amplitude.

The building with the exception of the RC that will be occupied by commercial activities, will be occupied by small typologies, T0 and T1, intended mainly for a young public, people starting their professional lives, students, prominent company staff or even digital nomads looking for a small space with a unique environment, and with a privileged accessibility network.

In terms of finishes, simplicity and comfort was the guiding principle. The use of warm and industrial tones was the premise of the interior mood. With the goal of creating comfortable and at the same time irreverent environments passing the image of a modern and current loft concept.

Inside the apartments natural wood will be used in the interior floors of bedrooms, living rooms and circulation areas combined with lacquered wood and ceramic tiles in various shades of gray and white. Outside, the use of grey corrugated sheets will be predominant.

It was intended that the irreverence and concept of the interior is also evident on the outside and vice versa, giving an idea of continuity and uniformity.
