House in Olhão / Estudio ODS

The intervention is located on Rua João da Rosa, within building no. 1, a structure originally part of a group of five buildings constructed in the early 20th century to house fish canning factories. These factories were strategically placed on the outskirts of the urban core, in a spacious area with convenient access to the railway line, catering to the growing demands of the canning industry, particularly during the two World Wars. Over time, as industrial activity intensified, worker housing emerged in the vicinity, gradually transforming the surrounding area into a residential neighborhood. Following the decline of the canning industry in the 1970s, four of the original buildings were demolished and replaced with residential structures.
