opif
40 m2 — april 2021
R. Maria, Lisboa
Opif is a wine bar of around 40m2, located in Lisbon in the Anjos district. It is a place combining informalism and elegance in a rapidly changing urban area. The space, located on the ground floor of a corner building, enjoys a privileged “balcony” location on the intersection of rua Maria Andrade and rua Maria.
This particular situation is the basis of the architectural concept of the place.
Like a theatre set, the totally monochrome space reinforces this close relationship between the exterior and the interior, between the public and the private. From inside, the street is staged through large bay windows, from outside, the bar is seen as a continuation of the street, a domesticated public space.
The colours and materials of the project are inspired by the existing cement tile floor and benefit the enhancement of the architectural heritage; the past and the present are linked in a common goal.
It is a domestic space, a comfortable environment where the spatial experience is fully offered to the visitor.
