The late Hotel Neptuno located on the beachfront of Monte Gordo has been totally refurbished, gaining the title of the largest plaster board construction of the Iberian Peninsula at the time. More than just a simple interior design project, the intervention consisted of a total functionality restructure of the building throughout its 15 floors and 313 Junior Suites, 46 Suites and 7 Master Suites. A new entrance canopy in metal and glass was designed and built to bring in natural light to this before dark and dull building. New sitting areas, bars, restaurants, shops, suites, everything was altered. And at the end, the audacity of the chosen color scheme, used without reservation, brought new life to the touristic offer of the coastal city of Monte Gordo.
