Cascais 2024

Rosa

A home that opens onto the terrace.

Rosa — Kitchen, dining and living space with dark stone counters.

A home connected
to its terrace.

This ground-floor T2 in Cascais had dated interiors and a narrow patio. A step separated the apartment from the outdoor space.

We opened the living space around a contemporary fireplace and added a glass partition between the bedroom and bathroom.

We extended the patio and raised it to the apartment level. Sliding bedroom doors now open onto a 70 m² terrace with a pergola and barbecue area.
