In the back side there is a bedroom with quiet environment, bathroom, laundry and 2 large storages.Īt the basement level there is one apartment with access to the garden. The part next to the street has a platform with higher level, guaranteeing the comfort and the privacy of the living room. Just after the entrance door there is a large and spacious living area with a living room, kitchen and dining area. The apartment on the ground floor has windows toward the street and to the garden. The house has a long form and the challenge was to create four apartments with good lighting and ventilation, maintaining the beauty of the existing elements and privacy. The ground floor is at the same height of the street. The basement is in a lower level than the street but also at the same level of the garden in the back side. The existing house has three floors: basement, ground floor and the first floor. The rather busy street is located in the southern part of the building and the garden in the north. The house is located in a part of a row building and it has been converted into four apartments. Ever.This project is a renovation of an old house in the centre of Porto. You will get full access to divisare archive and you will help us keep the lights on.ĭivisare subscription is free for teachers & students No Ads. If you like what we’re doing, please Subscribe. No click - like - tweet - share, no advertising, banners, pop-ups. This is why Divisare is a place to perceive architecture slowly, without distractions. Instead of hastily perused information, we prefer knowledge calmly absorbed. Instead of a quick, distracted web, we want a slow, attentive one. Patient work, done with care, image after image, project after project, to offer you the ideal tool with which to organize your knowledge of contemporary architecture. Join us in taking a stand against the short attention architecture media.ĭivisare is the result of an effort of selection and classification of contemporary architecture conducted for over twenty years. It is a different idea of the web, which we might call slow web. banners, pop-ups or other distracting noise. No "click me," "tweet me, "share me,” "like me." No advertising. Behind all this there is the certainty that we can do better than the fast, distracted web we know today, where the prevailing business model is: "you make money only if you manage to distract your readers from the contents of your own site." With divisare we want to offer the possibility, instead, of perceiving content without distractions. A long, patient job of cataloguing, done by hand: image after image, project after project, post after post. Every Collection in our Atlas tells a particular story, conveys a specific viewpoint from which to observe the last 20 years of contemporary architecture. Our model was the bookcase, on whose shelves we have gathered and continue to collect hundreds and hundreds of publications by theme. So we began to build divisare not vertically, but horizontally. May be because we wanted to distinguish divisare from the web that is condemned to a sort of vertical communication, always with the newest architecture at the top of the page, as the "cover story," "the focus."Ĭontent that was destined, just like the oh-so-new architecture that had just preceded it a few hours earlier, to rapidly slide down, day after day, lower and lower, in a vertical plunge towards the scrapheap of page 2.
