Galé L52

Located on the Costa da Galé in Melides, this single-family house consists of the rehabilitation and extension of an existing dwelling. The new construction continues the configuration of the adjacent house, maintaining the existing relationship between the two buildings.

Thus, the main volume with two stories features a flat roof, while the lateral volume maintains the existing pitched roof, thereby ensuring integration with the adjacent construction.

The ground floor of the house is composed of an entrance area that provides access to the main living room and kitchenette space, to one bedroom, and to the staircases leading to the basement level and the upper floor. The basement consists of a room designated for storage. The upper floor is composed of a main suite and two bedrooms.

The ensemble remains oriented to the south, and the exterior platforms and pool area are positioned on the plot in order to benefit from the best solar exposure, privacy, and views.
