Abstract

This Final Graduation Project focuses on the revitalization of the Pompeu Family Manor, ahistorical building that holds significant cultural and architectural value. The project aims topreserve the identity of the pre-existing structure while reinterpreting its use to meetcontemporary needs. Additionally, a new annex was proposed, designed to establish adialogue with the manor by balancing tradition and modernity. The revitalization process respects the original characteristics of the manor, with carefulinterventions to ensure its structural integrity and adaptation to current uses. Traditionalmaterials and techniques were prioritized, preserving the site's historical and cultural memory.The annex, on the other hand, was designed with dynamic volumetry and predominantlywhite materials, referencing Portugal's architectural style. This choice symbolizes continuity,harmonizing the past with the present. Landscaping plays a key role in integrating the project with its surroundings. Native trees ofthe Brazilian cerrado, such as the ipê, and palm trees were incorporated to strengthen theconnection with the regional context while providing beauty, functionality, and comfort tousers. The landscape design emphasizes the connection between the manor, the annex, andthe natural environment, creating a composition that promotes balance and sustainability. Thus, the project honors the historical memory of the Pompeu Family while projecting aninnovative and functional future for the site, blending heritage and modernity into a unifiedarchitectural context.
