"As a young couple, moving between countries and business clients as one moves between hot chocolate choices, was looking for a place to live in Lisbon, there were several priorities which they felt should be met: spatious, light-filled, not too complex or technically challenging to change/renovate, and something which felt just right for both of them and their child. Now, something"
"something which feels right is a common principle when house hunting: you may see 20 prospective houses in one day that seem to fit the briefing, but there's always something missing you cannot truly pinpoint. What no one was waiting, or hoping for, was that you could find something truly special on a street in Lisbon which most Portuguese children grew up seeing on TV (the official Prime Minister Office sits proudly and grandly just opposite the building)."
A young couple moving frequently between countries and business clients sought a Lisbon home prioritizing spacious, light-filled spaces and straightforward, low-tech renovation potential. The brief required simplicity, family suitability, and a sense of 'just right' for two adults and a child. House hunting often produces many candidates that almost fit but lack an undefinable quality. The couple unexpectedly encountered a property on a well-known Lisbon street opposite the official Prime Minister's Office, offering a prime, familiar urban setting. The location represented a win in terms of prominence and convenience, although a setback emerged during the process.
