About Frechal Terrace Príomhfheidhm: Taobh Istigh d'Fhoirgneamh Cónaithe

Díríonn an tionscadal seo ar spásanna comhroinnte foirgnimh chónaithe agus ar an gcaoi ar féidir leo saol laethúil na gcónaitheoirí a shaibhriú. In ionad seomraí comhchosúla a mhacasamhlú, tugann an dearadh isteach limistéir atá éagsúil go mór ar fud an fhoirgnimh, gach ceann acu lena charachtar agus lena atmaisféar féin. Ba é an aidhm eispéireas spásúil a chruthú atá cosúil le siúl trí bhaile beag, áit a n-éiríonn an gluaiseacht idir spásanna ina turas fionnachtana. Cuspóir tábhachtach eile ná timpeallachtaí a áireamh nach mbeadh ann ach go hannamh laistigh de theach tipiciúil, rud a leathnaíonn raon na ngníomhaíochtaí agus na n-eispéireas atá ar fáil do na cónaitheoirí.

Production Technology: Two main color palletes were used in this project: terracota and gray. Each set was used in different spaces for different purposes. The terracota pallete was used in the most inviting spaces, as the main foyer and the reception room. The gray pallete was saved for more intimate spaces, as the wine bar, that resembles a geometric cave, and the game room.
Design Challenge: The main challenge of this concept was to be very creative inside the limits of the existing project.
Research: The design process for the shared spaces of this residential building started with the idea of treating the building almost like a small city. Instead of repeating the same type of room, each area was intentionally designed to feel different from the others, creating variety and a sense of discovery as residents move through the building.

From this concept, the spaces were planned to function like urban destinations—places where people could pause, meet, relax, or spend time in different ways. Another key goal was to introduce environments that typically wouldn’t exist inside a conventional home. By doing this, the project expands what residents can experience within the building, turning everyday circulation into a richer and more engaging spatial journey.
Inspiration: A small-scale city with different languages and amenities. Each space has a special character and a unique design, to instigate the users and inspire them.
Project Duration: The project started in November 2024 and finished in September 2025. It is located in Balneario Picarras, Brazil.
Operation Flow: This is a project for shared spaces in a residential building. Instead of making everything look the same, the design creates very different areas throughout the building, so residents feel almost like they’re walking through a small city while moving between spaces. The idea was also to include places you normally wouldn’t find in a typical home, giving residents new experiences and ways to enjoy the building.
