The small house dated 1936 was built by my grandparents, in the place of Santagões, in a very rural area of Vila do Conde, where I am from. The architecture studio operated for ten years in the original house, practically as my grandmother had left it after her departure. The recent intervention made it possible to enlarge the spaces and improve the existing building, trying to leave all possible features intact, without reproducing or imitating the old, to avoid fake old things.
