La Sala
An apartment built for someone
who needs to come home to quiet.
The client works in front of cameras for a living and asked Maya's Homes for a home that was the opposite of that — quiet, warm, slow. A 95 m² T2 in Carcavelos with tired finishes and good bones.
The floorplan didn’t need moving — the atmosphere did. By anchoring the living room with a deep teal fireplace and stripping the kitchen of its heavy upper cabinetry, the apartment immediately exhaled. Soft sage tile and pale oak finished the mood. The kind of quiet a client who lives on camera comes home to.
