&TRADITION

In the Lisbon neighborhood of Avenidas Novas, apartment AP is in a build- ing that dates from the early 00s, with a showy design and flats of generic spatial character. The low ceiling height and the slender black window frames set the tone of the intervention, which resulted in an operation to contain the space in a uni- form, warm, and soft casing.

The spatial structure underwent a decisive alteration with the extension of the living room area - now occupying the entire western façade - and the widening of the communication with the kitchen, through a translucent sliding door. The scale system has been remade, with the rearrangement of the ceiling heights, the door openings at full height, new ceiling finishes, and the complete re-design and replacement of the woodwork: removal of skirting boards, new flooring, doors, frames, cupboards, and paneling, in oak wood.

In the kitchen and bathrooms, the diversity of materials, textures and tem- peratures, tried to use and emphasise different moods, arising from the character-istics and natural lighting, or its absence, in each space. The design of the lighting and some items of furniture, and the choice of the rest, together with the clients, reinforced the intimate tone, comfort and personal- isation of the flat.
