THE PRACTICE

FOUNDING VALUES

COLLECTIVE INTELLIGENCE

The history of the studio merges with the history of its founder, Miguel Saraiva, CEO and the architect conceptually responsible for each project design. It was out of the passion that he has always had for architectural design, combined with a unique ideological vision to transform a small studio into a corporate structure able to take his idea of architecture abroad, that S+A became a worldscale auteur studio. With the creative hub located in Lisbon, where more than an hundred of its employees work, it distinguishes itself for the capability to open to the world, adapting to each new market and to the challenges of an everchanging society. Today, with offices spread over several countries, S+A stands out for leaving a mark in different international landscapes.

Since 2013, S+A’s operations covers a widest range of services, comprising not only Architecture and Urban Planning, but also the areas of Design, Sustainability and Investment Advisory. This versatility became one of the Group strengths, which nowadays builds bridges of trust and preserves strong relationships with all the partners. The studio understands architecture as a collaborative and crossdisciplinary exercise, with quality as the underpinning growth driver. Currently employs more than an hundred professionals who are led by partners, country managers and other business leaders. With a skilled and multidisciplinary team - besides architects, engineers and designers - S+A has a wide range of specialists, delivering experience and knowledge to each tailored and singular project.

THE PROCESS

COLLABORATION AND

DELIVERY THE COMFORT OF EXPERIENCE

The design process is developed through synergies with clients and goes far beyond the traditional service offering. It is clear that, today more than ever, corporate responsibility extends beyond the conceptual quality, technical rigour and project identity to also include schedule performance and cost efficiency.

Our design solutions meet the requirements of each market we are working in. As such, the practice has earned a very strong identity, setting itself apart as a global brand, which has necessarily brought with its agility and knowledge, to deal with the challenges on a world scale. S+A is developing local knowhow, strengthening its experience on an international scale.

BIM - BUILDING INFORMATION MODELLING

We offer sound experience and recognition as seasoned users of building information modelling (BIM) around the world. BIM has transformed ways of working within the construction industry, rendering and clarifying all of the information associated with the life cycle of a building. Sharing and integrating data has become a must when drawing up new protocols, activities and growth strategies.

HOLISTIC DESIGN SERVICES

By understanding the impact of architecture in today’s society, our proposals incorporate sustainability values, applying bioclimatic principles to improve the overall performance of built environments. A human centered design that places comfort, functionality and aesthetics at the center stage, enhancing user satisfaction and improving the overall usability.

AREAS OF

EXPERTISE

ARCHITECURE & URBAN PLANNING

S+A’s operations have widened to cover a vast spectrum of services, encompassing not only architecture and urban planning, but also the areas of design and sustainability. Our buildings are inspired by their surroundings and are shaped by the fundamental principles of the S+A Group: technical and conceptual quality; innovation and efficiency; sustainability and adaptation to the local reality. With this vision and our long- standing experience, we provide architectural solutions that are at once functional and commercial, with a specific focus on the needs of our clients. Designing built environments means effectively combining three factors: art, technology and economics.

AREAS OF EXPERTISE

INTERIOR DESIGN ENVIRONMENTAL ENGINEERING SUSTAINABILITY

We believe that architecture must offer a unique, emotional experience. Our aim is to catch the attention of every individual from the exterior design of the buildings to the interior details that guarantee the distinctiveness, functionality, quality of materials and touch of genius which characterise our brand. Our broader, more motivated technical, creative and design team is tasked with developing niche programmes to suit each client’s requirements on an intimate scale. This allows us to offer turnkey projects, taking architecture to the highest level, creating spaces which are highly pleasant, visually appealing and compliant with good environmental practices.

For the past 15 years, sustainability has been a central theme for S+A Group, reflected in an increasing overall offer of sustainable and bioclimatic projects and in providing several other sustainability services, such as LEED and BREEAM certifications. This company is made of consultants, engineers and design architects that aim to capitalize sustainability and to grow the Group portfolio in this segment by creating innovative solutions for building design, urban built environment and ecomaterials. Our mission is to continuously incorporate sustainability value into our clients’ products and projects, enabling S+A Group to become increasingly recognized as a sustainable trademark.

GLOBAL DESIGN

This company provides an exclusive global design service based on two aspects: firstly, the capacity to consider and reflect on the life of spaces at the level of their programmatic content; and secondly, the capacity to relate buildings to one another, making them sensitive to their surroundings, while also granting them a sense of belonging to the public space of which they are an inextricable part.

This focus allows us to provide a truly holistic service that can, to a large extent, be applied across the international market, with a particularly strong uptake in areas relating to culture, content generation and design for museums and exhibitions.

INVESTMENT ADVISORY

PROJECTS

INFINITY TOWER LISBON 2022

This residential building will have 26 floors above ground and will consist of 195 apartments with types ranging from the T0 to the T5 duplex. Its 80-metre height will make it one of the tallest buildings in Lisbon. Located in Campolide, it will offer a panoramic view over the city, specifically Monsanto, Lisbon and the river Tagus. Its clover- shaped layout branches from the central core into three arms spread widely over the city. Each wing is diverse in the organisation of apartment types, a result of the variation of the views and the level of sun exposure. With modern and elegant lines, the height is modelled with art and ingenuity in a design that is free of sharp edges, softening the immense bulk of the structure against the skyline and emphasising the vertical axis. The final image is fluid and almost paradoxical in its simplicity. Some landscaped terraces punctuate the tower, humanising it. The project focusses on creating dwellings of excellence, without concessions.

CASAL RIBEIRO LISBON 2022

The architectural solution developed by S+A in the Casal Ribeiro Building, in Lisbon, involved the recovery and preservation of the historical identity of the building dating from the late 19th century, at the level of the façades and interiors. Ensuring the original architectural elegance, the residential project, which includes 73 flats distributed over four buildings, was given a harmonious ensemble that favours a form of living of excellence, endowed with the most demanding amenities.

200 CAMPO GRANDE LISBON 2022

With a wide view of the Campo Grande garden, in the center of Lisbon, the Two Hundred Campo Grande Residence, recently finished and which includes 55 flats, is a meeting point between rehabilitation and new construction. Consisting of three buildings, one completely new and two where the façades were restored, the aim was to maintain the personality and integrity of the façades in dialogue with the contemporary language of the new construction.

The location of the project is unique, embraced in the north by the Douro River and in the south by a dense green area. We wanted to make the most of the views of Porto and the Douro and, at the same time, incorporate Nature and the atmosphere of the place into the builtvisual, olfactory, tactile experiences. We knew what we wanted: to include all these experiences in the definition of “housing”; the creation of a dwelling that stimulates the senses of its occupant.

VALRIO COMPLEX LISBON 2022

Located in Lisbon, this is a residential complex consisting of two distinct buildings. The relationship with the surroundings is reflected in the elevations, endowed with wide glass panels framed by triangular balconies capable of providing the false impression of a marked and fragmented movement of the façade. It is a design of simple lines with a cosmopolitan character. Vertically, the buildings rise to eight floors from ground level and each has three subterranean floors. In terms of usability, the complex offers 100 apartments ranging from type T1 to type T4. At ground level, two commercial areas ensure the finish with the gallery of the adjoining building to the west. Inside, functionality, solar exposure and spatial optimisation are emphasised through reduced circulation areas and a flexible layout, capable of responding to various present or future needs. The use of the green element constituted a requirement of the design: by means of sets of flower boxes, it sought to create relaxing spaces that could also favour privacy with respect to the outside, as well as to enhance the visual separation between the housing units.

With all the benefits of the mixed-use concept, the new space includes a commercial area, apartments on the upper levels, a common patio and a green rooftop space. The façade, vertically divided by horizontal slats, transcends the typical homogeneity of the skin concept, creating pleasant spaces enriched by the contrast of light and shadow, exposure and protection. The system of spacious balconies provides a visual and functional extension of the interiors while safeguarding the privacy of those who live there at all times. In terms of usability, the aim was to include a total of 151 apartments on the site, ranging from lofts to T4-type residences, offering shared and family housing options.

LUCIMA TOWER CEBU 2021

The Lucima Tower is a residencial project developed by Saraiva + Associados for ARTHALAND in Cebu City, Philippines. The challenge was to design a residential building in the most important and cosmopolitan area of Cebu that would simultaneously transmit a contemporary and tropical spirit, combined with a sustainable way of life and well-being. Thus, through beveled profile slabs, marking a sublime horizontal rhythm, a balance between full and empty is created where the texture of champagne colored lath marks the lightness of the 36 floors, in parallel with the development of a sustainable strategy to obtain LEED GOLD Pre-certification and WELL Building Standard.

Type

With an excellent location, the new residential complex will comprise 255 apartments distributed across six different volumes. Characterised by significant horizontality, accentuated by a series of wide terraces and glass façades designed in a stylised, subtle manner, the design was intended to convey a feeling of lightness and harmony. A triangular geometry is adopted to increase solar control of the building, emphasising the play of shadows and volumes of the buildings and enriching the overall image of the complex. The design emphasises the idea of a holiday home, and the solutions proposed aim to create a unique identity able to make a mark on the landscape without damaging.

Featuring 29 residential apartments which blend into the landscape, the program aimed to minimize the visual impact of the built area. Formally, a building adapted to follow the morphology of the site is proposed, forming a low-rise horizontal line.

The architectural program reflects a coherent image of neutrality, purity, and functionality. In this design, which draws significantly on natural elements, the recessed terraces which operate as an extension of the interiors while simultaneously protecting inhabitants’ privacy are of particular note. The project is further enhanced by a garden and swimming pool, offering a smooth transition between the urban fabric and the natural landscape.

DUQUE DE LOULÉ LISBON 2020

The project is located in the center of Lisbon, in a building previously used for offices. The main challenge was the implementation of a residential based programme. With a typical architectural language marked by a late post- modernism, very much in style in the 1980s, the pre-existing building was, to some extent, inconsistent with the adjacent buildings. One of the main challenges was to improve the projected image in the city, with the purpose of providing efficient solutions considering the cost/quality binomial, combined with an effective aesthetic and functional performance. In order to make the existing volumetry (of vertical visual preponderance) more discreet, composed of eight floors above ground, the residential programme resolves the relationship with the exterior surroundings, through large glass panels framed by balconies of horizontal predominance.

Located in Monte Estoril, the project envisages a residential building consisting of two bodies interconnected through a transparent volume. The relationship with the surroundings is ensured by the formal characteristics of the elevations, the exterior surface being covered by large glass panels, sheltered by balconies with a layout resembling ‘boxes’ and enlivening the entire façade in a subtle impression of fragmented movement. The residential complex is entirely oriented toward the Atlantic Ocean, allowing its inhabitants to enjoy the view and proximity to the sea. Composed of 15 apartments, which vary in type between T2, T3, T4 and a penthouse, it has passageways designed according to natural lighting: vertical and horizontal communications and fire access are located in the north-west façade of the building, which is completely coated with glass. Pedestrian access from the street is through a space designed in the form of an opaque and transparent pergola. The developmetnt is further enhanced by a garden and a swimming pool facing the sea.

Del Mar Village is a luxury development located next to the Ria Formosa, in Fuseta, one of the most beautiful natural areas of Portugal. Consisting of 63 residential apartments blended into the landscape, the programme aimed to minimise the visual impact of the built area. Three groups of volumes adapted to the natural morphology of the terrain are formally proposed, arranged in a horizontal line with a reduced scale. The architectural programme reflects an integrated image of neutrality, purity and functionality. Terraces that function as an extension of the interior areas stand out in this design that is strongly committed to the enjoyment of nature. This valence invites the successive habitability of the spaces and accommodates the unique system of views over the estuary. For this reason, they acquire their own expression and scale, constituting not only a space for contemplation, but also for a broad range of other uses.

Designed as a hierarchy of geometric recessions, the exterior image is one of sober lines with glazed surfaces, interspersed with opaque elements, creating a balance between filled and empty spaces. This apparent transparency and randomness minimises the impact which is common among exteriors of buildings of this size. Inside, the space was equipped with advanced technology and security devices which make the Judiciary Police headquarters one of the most modern corporate buildings in Portugal. Meanwhile, patios were included to prioritise the availability of natural light, creating plays of light and shadow, and pleasant workspaces which minimise stress and disturbances.

Hilton develops the first Curio Collection hotel in Portugal, with an overall approach of two different yet interlinked interventions. On the one hand, the restoration of the existing building with interior refurbishment; on the other, the creation of a new building in a gap in the urban fabric.These two buildings form an architectural complex which represents a whole, united in its functions and in constant dialogue in terms of its forms. The approach is largely based on the use and reinter-pretation of formal elements and enduring, traditional materialities which characterise this area of Lisbon. The metrics and proportion of the interspaces, the ceramic glaze of the tiles and Lioz limestone were the elements used to support the contemporary approach, while remaining consistent with the rhythm of filled spaces and gaps of the surrounding area, reflecting a strategic choice of continuity and balance. Regarding the interiors, the design is fluid in terms of materials and colours, strengthening the unity of the complex. The warm Portuguese style of welcoming and pampering guests guided the theme for this project and aligned the different intentions. As the name itself suggests, it is more like a house than a hotel.

This conversion comprises two buildings – the existing module, containing the hotel – and a new module housing the spa and treatment area. Since the main challenge related to maintaining the original outline, the plans prioritised the extension of the space using a neutral metal structure (in anthracite grey), filling the gaps with large sheets of glass.
