Array of houses in Rua da Restauração (Restoration Street)

In contrast to the main façades lining the street front, the rear facades of these houses, which contain the service areas, are characterized by their increased dimensions. Despite its obvious irregularity, this array of houses is visually appealing. While the main façades are ennobled by the design of the front elevation and the materials used, the rear façades had to make do with more economical resources.
