studium project of planning for the construction of a single-family house with 03 rooms located in Lavra, Matosinhos, next to Pedras Brancas beach.
On the ground floor, the natural elements are echoed in the house’s 04 structural pillars:
fire: fireplace function
Concrete column with a small percentage of red pigmentation representing the liveliness and glow of the element evoked;
air: exhaust function
Represented by the partial absence of material, a high elevation where part of the pillar does not touch the floor and where fumes and smells from the kitchen will be extracted;
water: peep and fridge function
Volume with softened edges to symbolise the smoothness of water and allude to the erosion caused by the element;
earth: structural column function
The only pillar without an accessory function, it stands out for this very reason and for its ability to transfer forces into the ground, ensuring its connection to the Earth as a symbol of the 04 elements.
is a project by studium . creative studio, the result of a selection and ambition of a multidisciplinary and complementary team, dedicated to the development of architecture, communication design and product design projects. Focused on the process and its irrefutability, studium is guided by its mojo, an assertive blend of rigorous vision, passion and oddity, a mojo that defines the way we design a career in the studio. Architects and designers aligned by a methodology and disciplined practice, known as Methodological System, in an environment characterised by a constant critic of the models of developing project.
studium is related with two other complementary entities, intrinsically linked to the interpolated vision of the creative practice:
AMMP – brand and management agency
and
PTMade – production house
These two arms are specialised development paths, related to the critique of each project and the content creation ecosystem. This way, we provide a complete approach to the communication and creative production systems. This is an ecosystem that unifies strategy, criticism and results.
