Loft in Marvila

The restoration of a former wine warehouse with two floors required the complete demolition of the degraded interior area and roof. The new project chose to reconstruct the former ceiling and change the intermediate floor’s slab structure, this time using reinforced concrete supported by BOYD beams. Its specific look, together with the other materials used – solid brick, wood, and black painted steel – evokes the industrial imagery. The few partitions on the inside and the slab’s distance from the perimeter allow for a grasp of the space as a whole, conveying a sense of amplitude and freedom.
