Cartes - Porto, Portugal

A project where architecture meets the way people live today.The interiors focus on light, proportion and material. Wood brings warmth and continuity, while natural light opens up the space and makes even compact studios feel comfortable and generous.The shared areas are a key part of the concept. They are not just circulation spaces, but places to stay, work and connect. The coworking area is fully integrated, supporting a more flexible and social lifestyle.On the outside, the building follows a clear and repetitive rhythm. The façade creates a strong, calm presence that fits naturally within the urban context of Porto.Cartes is about balance. Private living combined with a sense of community, designed for a younger generation that values simplicity, design and adaptability.
