The residential area of Camama is in Angola, 20km south of Luanda. Camama is a growing area of the capital.

This project is the study for one of the building plots and it includes two residential buildings, landing on a basement which contains the parking area, lobby, gym and leisure areas.

The rooftop of this basement has public and private gardens, a swimming pool and solarium. As it is higher than the street level, this is a very quiet and private area.

The defragmented design of the residential buildings reduces their impact on the landscape, and the balconies help to shade, reducing solar exposition.

The interior design spacious and functional is set to a contemporary living.

A construção original data do século XIX, apresentando à data um elevado estado de degradação e abandono. O telhado há muito que deixa entrar água para o interior o que levou a que no alçado sul, a parede exterior de cantaria aparelhada apresente um avançado estado de ruina, ao contrário das restantes paredes exteriores, que apesar de degradadas estão em condições de serem reabilitadas.

A proposta de Arquitectura irá reabilitar e ampliar o edifício existente, adicionando-lhe um piso, o qual irá manter a traça típica do Bairro. Em contraste com a fachada principal e lateral de carácter tradicional em linha com a imagem do Bairro, a fachada tardoz terá um carácter contemporâneo e minimal. Para quebrar a leitura de uma fachada de três pisos, optou-se por desfragmentar a mesma, tanto em termos de acabamentos, como de volumes nos diferentes pisos. O piso inferior será marcado pelos vãos rasgados da sala e cozinha e a forra de madeira que se estende para as paredes laterais do logradouro; o piso 0 terá um volume saliente branco, com um rasgo horizontal correspondente à varanda do escritório e zona de tratamento de roupa, com prumos verticais e paredes em prumos de madeira; o piso dos quartos será revestido a zinco com 6 vãos de leitura vertical.

Located in a consolidated residential area, the lot is confined between other lots, already occupied with singular houses, and a vacant lot to the south.

Although empty the plot does not show a pronounced topography, only a few rocky outcrops, with much degraded rocks, precluding their use.

The project is based on the program required by the client. A house for four people, with a dependency for guests, with independent access to the dwelling itself. The building has two floors above the ground for housing and a floor below ground for garage and storage.

With a simple and clear morphology, the building is a single volume whose voids announce the entrance to the house. Given the existing walls that present a significant height, there was a need to open up the ground floor in contrast to the “enclosure” that might arise with the construction. This way the building is crossed by two horizontal axes (north-south) and (east-west) at the ground floor allowing the creation of visual axes that cross the building and announce what lies beyond it.

The project of the House was designed inside out, being the indoor garden the link between the interior spaces, introducing a green element adn natural light on the interior through the double height ceiling.

The Hall is also a central point of the House with it’s double height and the stairs. This space connects the social spaces of the ground floor and the private spaces of the upper floor. The volume of the rooms overlooking the pool are set on top of the living and dining room, which is one of the features of the House.

The outdoor spaces include a pool and jacuzzi. The building on the back of the plot supports the outsider areas.
