Our architects and engineers were challenged to design a new hotel in Oporto composed by several buildings in one of the most important historical streets in the city centre. On the outside the city architecture is maintained and all the facades are renovated with the original forms and finishing materials. On the interior, spaces are organized as a whole with a new homogeneous image and working as one single element. Below the terraces we provide services and conference rooms as common spaces are directly open to the near green spaces by glass and wood volumes. On the beautiful Oporto skyline a new luxury five star hotel is created in strict respect for Porto, a magnificent world heritage city.
