The building initially served as a residence, while over time it has undergone numerous interventions, mainly internally. The south (main) side has two entrances, a central one in the square volume and a secondary one in the smaller eastern one. This elevation is the most impressive of the building, as it has plaster trim around the perimeter of all the windows, a plaster cornice and three false columns. The two windows of the entrances are wooden panelled, with decorative details. The entrance level of the house is elevated in relation to the street level, marking the central entrance and reinforcing the symmetry of the façade. The other aspects remain simple.
The main objectives of the architectural study were, firstly, to highlight the remarkable architectural elements of the building, in combination with the restoration of its shell and secondly, the obvious internal distinction of the floors through the morphology. The building is converted into a single, two-storey residence, to which an internal staircase is added. Through the intervention, the semi-basement and the ground floor create an immediately recognizable dipole of character and style in order to function independently.
Specifically, the ground floor includes the living areas, an open-plan living room-dining room-dining room-kitchen and sleeping areas, three bedrooms with private bathrooms. The semi-basement includes an open-plan kitchen-dining-living room, two bedrooms with private bathrooms and a relaxation area with an indoor swimming pool. The peculiarity of the new configuration of the basement lies in the fact that the living spaces are in direct contact with the surrounding area and the new outdoor pool, while the living area separates the private spaces from the public spaces, acting as a filter.
