Building at Praça de Restauraçao no.12 - 1960/70

Olhão, Faro 8700-379, Portugal

Created By: ArchiTourAlgarve

Information

Contemporary apartment complex on two floors above commercial use on the ground floor after expansion and transformation of previous buildings.

The architectural presentation of the building is characteristic of the modern formal language of the 1960s and 1970s. In a design with framed balconies and their integration into the facade.

These concrete frame elements form a new kind of front facade and clearly belong to the modern architectural grammar of that time.

Around the corner - the same bank - a completely different modernist interpretation with composite aluminum profiles and ceramic surfaces
