BUILD Design & Build Awards 2023 6 BUILD Q2 2023 Mar23039 ompleted in September of 2022, Aethos Ericeira is a boutique hotel settled on the coast of the beautiful Ericeira. Overlooking the breath-taking beaches that frame the Atlantic Ocean, this stunning hotel plays host to a whole array of guests, each looking to experience a touch of beach relaxation from the comfort of their expertly crafted suites. However, Aethos Ericeira owes its undeniably unique design to PSA, whose team pride themselves on their ability to completely immerse themselves in the involvement of each project. PSA aims to deliver results that exceed excellence, and will do whatever it takes to present perfection in a way that’ll achieve the highest standard possible. This devotion to its craft is shown particularly well in Aethos Ericeira. Though there were constraints going into the project, with PSA looking to restore an abandoned hotel, the team didn’t let this hinder their creative flair, and went on to be grateful for the challenges they faced. PSA had the chance to prove it was worthy of its award-winning title through its seamless marrying of traditional and modern, a technique that had been neglected prior to its involvement with the project. Its location was far too good to refuse, leading to PSA’s overwhelming commitment to seeing that this project was an awe-inspiring success. The team narrowed down the essential aspects that they sought to maintain, such as the traditional arches from the original architecture, and proceeded to develop solutions that would combine their ideas with the original foundations to create something spectacular. Now, Aethos Ericeira is a hotel that boasts stunning views, gorgeous interior design, and holds an overall aesthetic that’s both cohesive and contemporary. Every ounce of Aethos Ericeira shines with an astounding artistic flair, with a theming that perfectly honours its unique position. PSA carefully considered how best to take advantage of the area to produce a project that’s truly special, and has accomplished an unmatched feat in the completion of Aethos Ericeira. Thanks to the team’s innovation and quick thinking, no obstacles were given the chance to emerge during the project. PSA C approached the design from a problem-solving perspective, utilising forward-thinking and intuition to concoct a design that would be aesthetically appealing, all whilst conforming to the environment. The result is a hotel that’s really a cut above the rest, inviting a whole manner of guests from across the globe into its midst to enjoy a luxurious seaside getaway. And none of its intrinsic beauty could’ve been presented without the help of the talented professionals behind PSA. PSA, at its core, is an architectural studio that aims to impress. Regardless of the client, or the difficulties potentially posed by a project, PSA’s diligent team will eagerly accept any opportunity to further hone their creative prowess. This has led to it being heralded as the Most Innovative Contemporary Architecture Studio 2023 – Portugal, and we’re eager to see where its next project takes it.
