Carcavelos 2023

La Sala

A calm interior.

La Sala — Living room with botanical wallpaper, a mustard sofa and a green fireplace wall.

A calm home
in Carcavelos.

The starting point. A 95 m² T2 in Carcavelos with a practical layout and tired finishes. The client wanted a warm, quiet place to come home to.

The renovation. The layout stayed. A deep teal fireplace, botanical wallpaper and pale oak floors changed the living room. Sage tile and lighter cabinetry opened up the feel of the kitchen.
