Retail

The store is a node, an homage to old-style eyewear stores, reinterpreted and recontextualized in a contemporary way. All the shapes and volumes are stylized and synthesized to their essence, stripped of unnecessary information so that they become almost low-resolution images, containing only the vital information, thus making up for a playful and pixelated environment.

A house that can adjust its distance from the city utilizing lattice shelves. The house is built along a sidewalk where the voices of families with children pass pleasantly by.

Devesa Pharmacy is located in Vila Nova de Famalicão, nestled between the city’s green areas and the urban center. Its prime location, with direct road access via Avenida do Brasil, played a pivotal role in selecting the site and realizing the project. The access road is one of the main entry points to the city center, providing convenient access for pedestrians, cyclists, and motorists. The architectural intervention of Devesa Pharmacy respects the existing structure, consisting of two offset parallelepiped volumes. The project adds a curved parapet that unifies the volume and indicates the path to the Farmadrive. The street-facing facade invites passersby into the interior through large windows during the day, transforming into a generous illuminated showcase at night.
