Cátia Interiors proudly unveils the transformation of a 2-bedroom holiday home into a stunning serviced accommodation flat, located in the charming city of Machico, Madeira Island. This project was an ambitious undertaking that skillfully reinvented the space, infusing it with light, elegance, and modernity.

Originally a holiday retreat, this flat underwent a complete metamorphosis. Most walls were demolished to reconfigure and open up the space, addressing the challenge of limited natural light. A pivotal move in this transformation was the demolition of the wall separating the living room and kitchen. This not only unified these two areas but also allowed light to flow freely throughout the flat. Mirroring these spaces further enhanced the sense of openness and brightness.

Cátia Interiors' strategic use of light-reflective finishes played a crucial role in transforming the once dull and dark interior. These finishes brought an airy and luminous quality to the flat, turning it into a haven of minimal contemporary design. The transition from a flat characterized by dark arches to one that exudes personality and elegance is a testament to Cátia Interiors’ expertise and vision.

After a year of transformation without the clients’ presence, the unveiling was nothing short of spectacular. The clients were astounded, finding themselves unable to recognize their once familiar holiday home. The space now stands as a minimal, yet profoundly elegant city apartment, offering a stylish and comfortable haven in the heart of Machico. This project is a perfect example of how Cátia Interiors can dramatically reshape a space, turning design challenges into opportunities for innovation and beauty.
