The virtue of restorative architecture is a keystone of cultural preservation.
At a glance, Three Cusps looks perfectly in place, an organic residence in Ses urban landscape.
Inside, the contemporary contrast is striking a modern, cool and clean interior feels artful and relaxing.
Further, locally-sourced granite and wood were used for accents, tabletops and flooring throughout.
This not only ensured low-footprint construction, it also kept costs manageable in what was likely a costly restoration.
The completed Three Cusps Chalet is now a home and workplace in Se, Portugal.
