how/why we work Paratelier bases its design research in the conjugation of two complementary disciplinary perspectives: architecture and landscape. The project is intended as a synthesis of a multidisciplinary process resulting from the ‘Exchange’, a fundamental action for the construction of an idea of space. In this sense, every architectural and landscape is contextualized and communicates what is the story, the environment, the morphology of the site by entering the present between the past and the future. The project is research, where innovation is achieved through the reinterpretation of the place, the careful use of materials and sensitivity during the construction process, promoting the handmade side.

Ze house
In the heart of Palmela, a void is subjected to the presence of the castle and the surrounding landscape: the Barris Valley. Thus arises a new volume, firmly anchored to the ground, which consists of a concrete monolith, with simple lines, that relates to the massive figure of the castle and, at the same time, to the geometry of the articulated roofs of the surrounding. This construction redefines and concludes the limit of the facade of the Boa Vista Square, strengthening its structure: history and

landscape merge in one place. The surfaces and materials reveal the construction process of the building, establishing not only the geometric relationship with the environment but also the chromatic relationship through the use of ochre pigment added to concrete (tone present on the roofs and facades of Palmela). The wooden panels used for concrete casting imprint their texture to the continuous surface of the exterior facades, giving them a natural pine vein relief. After
Ze House
cleaning and planed, these panels were recovered and reused on the inner floors, walls, and furnisher, establishing the same metric rhythm inside and outside of the house. The spatial organization is divided by three levels, distributed by a wooden staircase. On the ground floor, an open space, lower than the road level, constitutes as an access lobby, characterized by the natural light. On the first floor it’s located the more private areas of the house, organized along a patio situated on one side of the lot. The second floor aggregates the areas designated to the social life of the house, where the openings were designed to capture different landscapes, with different scales, at different times of the day: the Boa Vista Square, a static image of the castle and the extensive verdant vineyards of the Barris Valley landscape.

summer house
In a sloping hillside in St. Isidore, Mafra, a place of sharp topography and rural environment marked by the approach from the sea, is an uneven terrain exposed to winds filled with saltiness. There remain old storehouses, near the street, built with a rural scale of its time. One of them turned out to be rehabilitated.

house is imposed as several white volumes over the hillside, related to the rehabilitated warehouse and the small village, passing unnoticed to passers-by on the street. It is assumed on the landscape, but remain discrete towards the street. We tried to built on the scale of the village, separating and connecting the various spaces through three courtyards connected by a main corridor. That long shape links together the three units and, at the same time, brings you to a looking-out point on the valley

A unique architectural object to house different functions and react with the red alentejan landscape. A contenitive wall solve a remarkable elevation gap between the garden and the arrival site. That wall is as wide as to become case for technical systems, water treatment plant and general storage. In that thickness, by stairs you get on the top, on the garden.
The path is a narrow and quite poky labyrinth till when suddenly the wide alentejan landscape appears to you. And you are on a terrace, a new preferential place, a metal covering, made by a series of beams that provides shadowness for six cars.

A city garden in a farm. Nowadays is usual to escape from the urban mess and the city stress to take refuge in a farm house, surrounded by fields, where assemble a kitchen garden with chickens and maybe pigs… this idyllic image is adverse to the city advantages that almost nobody is going to leave. In a short time, in recent years, architects and landscape designers have had to stand and answer to new typologies of houses and open spaces: urban houses in a farm; a city mark in rural contexts.

A garden, with clear boundaries, in a so extended area, is the challenge that we decided to take on. The first question is that to solve the relation between a luxuriant area and a dry and clay soil: the edge is veiled, greenery enter in the red land and the opposite.
“lajetas� that form paths. Those paths continues overcoming altimeter gaps with concrete ramps or stairs, defining in that way the garden space, to others project sites (orchard, parking area, corkard ..).
Different scrubs of local vegetation, make a wider perception of the garden; the location of small bushes and olive trees has been studied taking care of the view from inside the house, choosing references, near and far, on the landscape and focusing on them, as well as the concrete

At the end of the path. This stable aggregates in itself the functions of horse stable and haystack and, at the same time, works as a spatial organization element, strongly related with the topography and with the structure of the Hill (“Monte alentejano”). It’s a point of arrival. Appears as a line on the landscape, which replicates the structure of the surrounding hills; a building developed horizontally that aggregates the outodoor spaces associated therewith.
Interior space, exterior space, landscape, constructed, non-constructed, as one. The stable thinks the space as one. Aggregates the interior space and the exterior around his longitudinal brick walls. And if on the one hand it assumes the character of element, standing out in its relative context, characterizing and organizing the “other side of the road”, for the other hand appears in continuity of the main path of the hill, strongly engaged in the landscape.

A little holiday house: a haven for the free time at the Marina di San Nicola Lazial coast with a clear functional programme: different field in a unique reduced space. The plan of design action is to reset the internal arrangement to gain a free circulation inside the flat with a spatial continuity to get wider spaces and save more private areas. The kitchen is instrumental for the new pliable configuration of the house: three different position of the kitchen back let various ways to live
and interact with the space, from the partially opened up to completely closed. Wood, as white painted slats, in order to reflet and increase the interior brightness, is the constructive architectural explanation of that purpose and in that way it take part in each element of the arrangement: it becomes threshold, paneling on walls and parapet for the stairs.

In the beginning we have a consideration and an understanding of the place… And as so, there is a search for the appropriation of the forgotten space, one that once hold the spacial organization of the Portuguese Architecture, tight and compressed divisions in opposition to the spaces of the palaces, forgotten. There is a local noise, a difference between the before and the after. the before that is a culture, a way of acting and a tradition. In another moment the development begins; we outline a space

that emphasizes the weight and the thickness of these four stone walls. Our intention draws only three lines from north to south, perpendicular to the façade. We complete the spans, continuing a previous reorganization that had been lost. We try to conquer a position of the handcraft when faced with the execution of the walls and with the design of the spaces. The design begins, two spaces.
The first, configures a main path, sequential and progressive. It distinguishes three programs by creating two light walls that receive objects, and enclose the sequence, if that is the desire. One other space exists, one not continuous with the previous, or with the preceding ones, because it configures a space of work, represented by an isolated space, with a single access form the outside; contained within the same four walls. We deliberately divided the inhabiting from the working. I now finish, because the noise gave place to a drawing. I can now rest, as I have spent all day at sea.

Between Alghero and Bosa. An abandoned quarry now an integral part of a transformed coastal landscape. There are sandstone blocks scattered everywhere, overturned as if washing the cliffs for thousands of years, marking the limestone promontory of Capo Caccia. How to protect this amazing coastal landscape transformed by abandonment and neglect of man? How to value this ‘no place’, which tells its history, photographing the recent past of a intense mining activity that helped to build urbanity of Alghero? Built in one day, three friends equipped only with gloves

and good will, put in order the ‘disorder’ left by the man, adding with a simple gesture, a new meaning to the coast which had been perpetrated for years by subtraction of resources. A platform for contemplation, that already existed ... it was there, it took only to find it and organize it. A project in sequence, the first of a series of punctual interventions. Recovering the meanings of lost places. Return to the coast to its function: a viewpoint towards the sea for everybody.

Part of Lisbon’s reconstruction history, from the post-earthquake period, is printed on the Pombaline’s building foundations that redesigned a new city: those are robust and they structure the basis of the buildings which rise above. Somewhere in the heart of the historic city, contained in between thick walls of stone, we find a surprise space, now also part of a network of the city’s creative spaces. The exceptional characteristics of this new space help us to understand the possibilities of its transformation and appropriation. The rectangular space of about a 100m2 and 6m high, is punctuated by two central
38
pillars which support arcs in between them and directed to the walls, inscribing order, balance and lightness to the space, and thus rising it to the image of a salon space. One door and two windows connect the space to the exterior, placing it in Lisbon’s Time and Geography. There’s little, or nothing, left to do. It’s this “almost nothing” that matters, the essence that rises a space, initially conceived as a warehouse, Paratelier finds an ideal space for the expression of its notion of an architecture studio as a creative platform that seeks to trespass its own disciplinary field. From
this idea, the task of organizing a work space becomes, in fact, an apparently more easier and familiar one, as if it was enough to consider the relations between the space where you create, live and work, and then occupy. The project consists on the drawing and construction of a simplified system of wooden pieces hinged together in a modular structure, which delineates all the space’s perimeter, functioning as an important element of connection between the white walls and the stone pavement. This spatial device supports and accumulates the thickness of the working movements, printing the indecipherable history of daily atelier actions. In between minimalist abstraction, marked by the accuracy of a previously set assembly system and the pragmatic sense of organization of a work space, the intervention brings us, above all, the notion of inhabiting, thus revealing one of the most fundamental functions of architecture.

sustainability resulted in the subtile interventions with the goal of sustaining and enhancing the existing ecological system. This is visible in the elements like plantation of local aromatic vegetation which can be used in the culinary offer, preservation of the existing vegetation with the accent on olive trees, and the maintenance of the vegetation by the sheep grazing. Small and local interventions in the landscape were aiming towards preservation of the existing ecological pattern and processes, while using the potential of certain locations to diversify the experience of the site.

In the vast nature reserve of “pinhal da Comporta” recognized for its typical coastal habitat of pine woods growing on the sand dunes of Atlantic ocean, one surprising element makes the location one of the special “corners” of the universe – the water as small artificial lake that intensifies the white colour of the sand, the greens and the browns colours of the pines and the blue color of the sky. One volume, located parallel with the lake, is divided into three parts for three different functions – living (primary function), storage and parking. The volume, entirely made from wood, grew out of even simpler element

Besides clever self-ventilating walls, that are temicaly isolating the house, importance of the nature and the environmental sustainibility is represented through the used materials. Along with the wood, other organic materials like Eco-paint and cork are used to create this highly adaptable, sustainable and recyclable architecture.

The garden, designed by João Gomes da Silva, crawls up over a building in Coimbra called Escrita’s house. The marking by João Mendes Ribeiro raised a space that was already improved by literature. This is what João José Cochofel asked: his house should become a haven for who still wanted to leave words on paper, for who feels hungry of yellowed pages or who only would like to talk about good novels or poems. Open spaces absorb noise; they are made by several little areas in different levels, defined by various spatial concepts.

The intervention in Alfama, in Lisbon shows the necessity of take the city back from the low level status in wich it got in the years. All the interventions have been promoted and involved by privates and the Municipality of Lisbon. The specific building we restored has been elevated with one storey more, and it takes it reasons in the particular orography of the site: each storey has a private access to its storey by a different path on different levels that could be crossing a little garden or from the street. The external shape of the building has been kept and the configuration on the street is remained the same, with a lisboneer aurea.

The reconversion of the precint Alambre park landscape, is calling for the integration of a touristic use with the fragile ecological structure. The philosophy of the project is that to follow a eco-friendly model binding landscape structure with it’s potentiality.
The project is divided in step in a long time, drawn upon materials in site and the help of people that have been involved in that self building programme as students, boy scouts and friends‌
The programme for the park is to arrange a 40x60m playground, a pool, light hygienic architectures, paths in the nature, a organic farming, a plant boundary and a terrain stabilizing system in places liable to surface erosion that is made by planting grass.

COMPOST was developed as a finite space where experienxe and perception of the place is stimulated. A place appears as a closed space which materializes the idea of fracture between the space of its own interiority and the space of the exterior word. The viewer is drown into an experience of enclosure in which the pilgrimage leads to a process of contemplation of its own deep. A path closed and contained between soil (gabions) walls structures the the experience of space and illustrates the stratification, which metaphorically refers to the monastic life.

On the surface we reveal only the tip of the hidden structure: a conic pipe in blue vitrified tiles emerges on the surface, announcing, the infra-garden. Looking down the tube we can see ourselves reflected on the water surface. The garden is kept inacessible. We can only see the infragarden and hear the sound of falling water inside. A condenser shotgun microphone is directed to a point where waterdrops fall. The signal is processed and reproduced as amplified sound. As in the gesture of constructing a garden, the final result is made of the sound of water running vertically through the vegetation and by human action in this place, resulting in an accumulation of natural processes and human activity,

This work didn’t only focus on the design of a resort but also in the composition of a system that it’s sustainable in all the phases of the process. To achieve ecological sustainability it was built a model of territorial organization that makes the most of the resources generated by the construction of the dam. The dynamic reality of the landscape, caused by changes of the uses and relationships of the residents and visitors with the
territories, is the thread of all of the project choices, prefiguring a proposal, always in line with the territory in which it operates, that explores the concepts of dynamism, flexibility and sustainability.

The design of the Rocca’s park is based on the interpretation of the site’s historical evolution, highlighting traces and relationships. Water was an essential structural element for landscape design of the proposed Urban park. On one hand, the lake which marked the fortress from 1600 onward was highlighted through the reinforcement and structuring of existing vegetation. On the other hand, the channel,

In the building 5 de Outubro, in the homonym square in which it face it-self, we decided to redefine the shape of the volume keeping the preexisting structure with two medieval naves in the interior. The building and the square need a single thought, especially on the doorway of the building where public and private spaces are in contrast. The simple volume is well integrated with the other historic buildings facing the square and the same portuguese bay.
Now the square and the building talk together, while the interior has been cleaned and simplify in the formal and structural ways. The functional programme, inside, is as simple as flexible (a big hall, the info isle, and a little conference room) due to the public value that now the building has taken on.

A compromise between nature and humans. We purpose a new landscape, based on the reconstructing and enhancement strategy: a new interpretation of the natural dynamics with the reusing of structures and cultural typologies existing in the territory. Solve ecological issues, give us the chance to define action plans on the coast in order to reorganize the relationship between the natural world and the human system and then, make them

coexist. The old fishermans’ hamlet has back it’s identity, but, at the same time, Marceddì could now be a beautiful patchwork of environmental discovering activities, and, with them find a new vigour and dynamism.

Reinvent the memory of a place through a re generation process. Memorial park: the vacuum space, the quiet and memory site, but, at the same time, place for encounters, for cultural change and for smiles. We programmed a spatial and temporal construction of the park: the dynamic process of planting reflect and go with the regrowth of the place. Pioneer plant species with fast development set up the edge between the park and the bu-

Signs, letters, words, Today we write! We have invented a new albphabeth that speaks of a new and dirrent ways of living the public space, the outdoors: it’s a game, it’s imagination... The project is inspired by the children book, published by Corraini editore “ABC con l’immaginazione” by Bruno Munari, a book that plays whit the typography of the letters of the alphabet and becomes a moment of playing for the children. In this spirit, we would like to pay tribute to the Milanese designer and

Cork is also waterproof and impact resistant material, attributes that suit the needs that a children’s furniture requires.

Exhibitors for paez© are a spin-off of the Muzzle design line, adapted for the product to sell. The project is simple: few elements compose the exhibitor making a panel that can house each size of paez© models line. Pieces are made of OSB panels, perforated in order to fix in them pegs to expose shoes and assembled together with a black cotton rope. The same element is used to compose and easily change the numbers of the different sizes exposed.

A washing line for a hill in Alentejo! Six, three metres long steel wires, fixed on double end to two softly bent steel tubes that remind the old wood washing lines used in that area. The image is as light as possible: the curve bending of each tube in the upper part is balanced in a unique point of contact on the land.

In the design area of furniture for children, Muzzle is a project that aims to produce an innovative response to the consumer of the XXI century, adapting to new requirements. Muzzle is characterized by a simple game of joints, in which the simplicity of the design allows the assembly of different pieces refer to primary and intuitive construction system, without the use of any kind of glue or metallic piece. The child thus acquires a predominant role in the puzzle assembling, without any limit.
MUZZLE the big puzzle
The furniture is not identified as an “untouchable” object, on the contrary it’s thought to be transformed into a stand for mutations, prepared to be used and consumed over time. All parts of Muzzle are produced through laser cutting of different materials, derived from wood, 100% recyclable, from sustainable management certified forests as MDF, OSB, Valchromat, multiwall and doka, material used in formwork for concrete construction. All these materials are treated with beeswax, a natural finish, carefully applied by hand.

A mechanism. The handcrafts is the most satisfying part of the architects work: think each detail of an architecture, experiment materials, shapes and operations. A steel object: the door-stop, a rejected element in the complexity of a building, but it’s still a functional and necessary piece. We realized a prototype thinking the different positions and

functions that it can assume: a “piston” that moves in double positions on the main body of the object thanks to two small wheels. The vertical position stops shutters and the horizontal one is for the doors. The simple and linear shape integrates itself on facades without weight them down with flowery signs.
