An old barn is transformed into two guesthouses. History and contemporaneity in harmony
The "pink house", designed by Mezzo Atelier studio and located on the Atlantic island of Sao Miguel in the Azores, maintains the character and rural atmosphere of the early 20th century barn while creating space for a contemporary addition
