Discover the Casa em Mesão Frio, a deeply personal rebuild by felixARQS – Daniel Félix Arquitectos in Mesão Frio, Portugal. What was once a family ruin — handed down from the owner’s grandparents — is reimagined into a modern home that embraces memory, history, and emotional continuity. Preserved stone walls, warm timber interiors, and a subtle rooftop studio fuse past and present. This house shows how architecture can rebuild with reverence, restore connection, and honor roots while creating a meaningful future.
