Vila Azul is a perfect example of a renovation as it has to be — a complete demolishing and construction from scratch a completely new and modern house with appropriate historical architecture around wonderful Queluz Palace. The color of the Vila is a copy of the color of the Palace. The original estate has been enlarged twice in its sq. meters and is now a fantastic weekend house 5 minutes’ walk to the Palace gardens.
The planning idea of Vila Azul is based on the lifestyle of the owners — a mature couple. It is always convenient to have all facilities at one floor level. However, the task for us was to increase the space for hosting kids when they come to visit parents in lovely Queluz. Therefore the atiс floor was added with two more bedrooms and fantastic views as a reward for climbing up.
