Da memória à reconversão. Casa da Lameira. Temas de um projeto de reabilitação e adaptação a espaço turístico

Abstract

The purpose of this dissertation is the study, analysis and development about a rehabilitation project in Canelas do Douro. The intervention, in a quinta in Alto-Douro, involves the refurbishment of the manor house and the construction of a new volume, which will be both intended for tourism purposes. That said, the work is organized in five fases, where the various themes and moments that proved essential in the development of the conversion project are pointed out. These fragments originate from the initial circumstance and accumulate until the completion of the project. It should be noted that although all of them directly influenced the work process, they were not always decisive in the final project, yet they are nonetheless presented with the same importance as the others. An architectural project is not about a linear matter, but about something in constant transformation and evolution.
