Casa das Árvores Particulares is a collective housing building, located in Vila Nova de Gaia, across the Douro river from the city of Porto. Abandoned for over two decades, the edifice required a complete restructuring operation.

The project is developed over four floors and its primary structure of reinforced concrete walls and pillars is in plain sight. The main façade, facing the street, will be entirely restored. The original project displays an absolutely symmetry through plans and façades. This logic is sustained as the pattern will remain identical, while proposing three typologies (studio, one-bedroom apartment and three-bedroom apartment) and five different spacial configurations.
