The Olo Casa Faria is a renovation and expansion project that transformed an old residence into a more functional and integrated space, without sacrificing coziness. The house was acquired for its privileged location and the potential of the land, but it required a complete restructuring to meet the needs of the residents.Save this picture!The main challenge was to balance modernization and comfort by creating a new spatial organization. The proposal prioritized wide openings to improve sunlight exposure, ventilation, and connection with the extensive outdoor area.Save this picture!Save this picture!On the ground floor, the old garage was replaced by a TV room, while the carport was relocated to the front setback. The staircase was repositioned to allow for a more fluid circulation, and the service area made way for a generous kitchen, integrated with the gourmet space. At the back, the old shed was converted into a studio, laundry room, and guest bedroom. A large arch of cobogs now decorates the garden, also serving as a visual barrier for the courtyard.Save this picture!Save this picture!On the upper floor, the expansion allowed for the creation of larger areas, including a master suite and a new bedroom. The aesthetic of the house was updated with contemporary volumes, new colors, and materials, while maintaining relevant original elements, such as the facade windows.Save this picture!Landscaping plays an essential role in the project, permeating the entire ground floor and contributing to the harmony between architecture and well-being.Save this picture!Project gallerySee allShow lessAbout this officeEstdio OLOOfficeMaterialsMaterials and TagsPublished on March 12, 2025Cite: "Faria House / Estdio OLO" [Casa Faria / Estdio OLO] 12 Mar 2025.
