[/caption] “It is always a great challenge and an honor to work with memory and connect it in an innovative way with the present times, envisioning the future. This was the great motivator for the Paysandu 23 project, the former Hotel Paysandu. A listed building , it becomes the substrate for yet another challenge that seeks to intertwine the lines of the past and the future ”, says architect Fernando Costa, partner at Cité Arquitetura. With this proposal to unite the past and the present, several elements serve as support to bring a more modern atmosphere. The façade, on the other hand, was preserved and needs special care to restore its prominence in Art Deco style through lighting by Maneco Quinderé .
