Description
The rehabilitation of these houses had to be part of a selection marked by inner life. Architect Paulo Moreira’s projects for these historical buildings reaffirm our confidence in architecture as a discipline attentive to reality, bringing together in a singular way the integration of the existing matter with the necessary “aggiornamento” [update] – functional, regulatory and of comfort. And this is, without a doubt, the real criterion for the sustainability of the constructions. Because of that they are exemplary architecture of our days – days marked by several interventions of this nature in the centre of our cities, normally of poor quality and subject to real estate speculation.
