A serene apartment in Porto, that could provide a comfortable and relaxed atmosphere for a young couple to live and welcome friends.
Every successful project starts with a conversation with the client where we talk and qualify what is important for the project – can be lifestyle, habits, size and notion of comfort, timing, or budget. With all this info we move to the next stage where design concept is established, including the proportions, dimensions, and even unspoken measurements.
For this project the aesthetics became very clear for the beginning – Natural Materials (a variety of woods and marble), earthy textures, and even a warm color palette invite us to a Natural oriented atmosphere.
The Interior Design project, signed by Ding Dong, had as its main focus adding comfort to the various spaces. For that purpose, the approach was to highlight the contrast between the cold materials of the interior that resulted from the construction process (such as the apparent concrete on the ceilings and the glass walls) with the selection of the “warmest” materials, such as natural straw wallpapers and fabrics with warm shades and soft textures.
