The Lamosa Urban Development began with a land sub division project carried out by the firm. On the part closest to the Vale do Lima motorway, i.e. the south-eastern corner of the site, a design project for a housing complex consisting of eight terraced single-family homes was carried out.

The resulting urbanistic design, which features new streets in almost all its entirety, provides individual access to the house garages from the south and pedestrian accesses from the north and south.

The area of intervention presented a difference in levels between one street and the next, approximately equal to one house level, and the conclusion was reached that it would be more beneficial to have the reception and service/kitchen areas on the lower level, making internal courtyards with open connections between the garden areas and the house interiors possible. The upper floors, which feature two glassed fronts, contain the bedrooms. This model means that each dwelling would benefit in terms of privacy and quiet, considering the location.

The form comes from the site morphology itself; the materiality is essentially twofold. Concrete is used in the whole base and on the upper floors, which take the form of a parelleliped, with the use of brown-coloured ETICS and, of course, glass.
