A typical middle-class Porto house has been converted into a collective living space. Despite alterations in the 1980s, to adapt it for use as a professional school, the building was in good condition. It required no major structural interventions to the interior.
Thus, the proposed alterations respected the historical integrity of the building. The exterior design was maintained and the operations carried out were aimed at ensuring thermal and acoustic comfort.
