The aim of the project is the renovation of ruined rural constructions, which are to be adapted for hotel facilities in Vidago. The constructions are a rural house and its warehouse on the ground floor, winery, barn and other farmers buildings. On the outside we envisage to keep the existing image and to “rediscover” it where it had been badly changed. The interior of the house is transformed into social areas with a small kitchen and toilets. The remaining spaces keep their approximate previous shape. Every detail is new, but based on the previously existing ones.
