Louca Building is a minimal building located in Coimbra, Portugal, designed by José Pedro Lima. A mid-60s building, previously used primarily for commercial and office purposes, underwent renovations to provide a comfortable residential experience. The goal of the renovations was to not only design new living spaces, but also to increase natural light and use warm materials. The new flats, which include one two-room unit and four one-room units, were designed to maximize comfort within small areas. Materials such as wood, stone, tile, and stucco were used in the interior design.
