PROJECT DESCRIPTION

The design was intended to be the dematerialization of the

building to the person who observes from the beach, creating

open plans and glazing to the east, leaving the spaces most

closed to the west. We opted for the creation of a base, yet

soft, to the whole building and terrace area allowing an

elevation over the territory, thus achieving a greater visual

projection on the beach, emphasizing the connection to the

village and to the sea.

We designed a building composed of three volumes that

are tied together at the entrance, which also provides

connection to the outdoor deck, where you access the

building. Each volume consists of different spaces yet they all

complement each other. The public areas are located in both

lower and longer volumes that are open to the East,

projecting himself visually. The third volume, more distant and

closed, integrates the service areas. The entrance is

emphasized by the frame of the most advanced volume,

which extends to the access stairs.

Regarding to the materials selected, we gave special

attention to wood, glass, and white, that relates to the beach,

the mountains and sea, and contribute to customization of the

various spaces and environments. The base of the building

composed of treated timber, based on wooden stakes. The

building structure consist of columns and beams in glued

laminated wood, treated with insecticide, fungicide and hydro

repellent. The coverage is composed of wooden interior lining

with vapor barrier, mineral wool insulation and covered

externally by simple sandwich panels.

The building skin is made of wood panels with two types of

finish, treated wood in natural color and white paint. The

glazing are framed by aluminum in dark gray, and colorless

laminated glass.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION

This proposal seeks primarily to establish a

coherent relationship with the place. In this

specific project, the location of insertion came a

key factor in its development mainly by the fact

that the sea view and the side with greater

exposure to the sun were on opposite sides. In

this sense we propose a house that, while it is

projected upon the ocean to the north, also opens

in search of sun to the south.

Taking into account the various constraints and

objectives, we propose the creation of a stone

wall that rips the intire house, making the

separation between social and private. This wall is

not only the separation but also works as an

organizing element of the spaces. It is this

element which are concentrated the vertical

access, accentuating it's importance.

The house is developed on three floors, with the

1st basement buried incorporating a garage and

an office, on the ground floor are the spaces of

social, services and private rooms, on the top

floor will be integrated leisure and reading areas,

always overlooking the sea by the mezzanine

over the living room.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION

This proposal essentially seeks an optimal solution between

the default program and the creation of a consistent

relationship to the site. In this sense, we opted for a building

arranged on four floors, with shops and garage at ground floor

and six dwellings distributed across three upper floors.

The nearest surroundings already has a density of buildings,

mostly of multi-purpose buildings for housing, commerce and

services, which have been consolidating the avenue, which is

also an important road connecting to other clusters and is

therefore one of important factors in developing this project.

The project also took into account various factors considered

relevant in its surroundings, including important elements in the

territory, as is the religious building from the 50's, the Mother

Church of Corredoura, and from a more distant but no less

important, the Castle of Sesimbra .

Also the visual projection on the upper floors of the valley of

the Seven Paths to the south and the mountains, and in

particular the Mill, are important elements that contrast with the

densified urban image. Moreover, the location of building on

the main artery of Santana, which already has a lot of

movement, could become a problem in particular for the

residential spaces.

In this sense, the idea of this building is to create an element

that marks the Avenue, since it is located near the new

roundabout, giving it some formality and sobriety contrasting

with the nearby surroundings, and while most can contemplate

the distant surrounding. This formal character is transmitted

primarily by the more restrained and closed image of the

building, which retains its facade in the foreground, in line with

the Avenue.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION

Considering the area of intervention, the program

pre-set with the client as well as other physical and

legal constraints, it is proposed the change and

rehabilitation of two existing houses on the property

trying to meet the needs of its future inhabitants, with

particular attention not only to the organization of the

interior spaces as well as in how they articulate with

the surroundings.

One element to note is definitely an old lime kiln that

exists on the place, proposing to his recovery and

rehabilitation so that it is assumed as a reference to

those arriving at the property.

For the alteration and rehabilitation of the two

existing homes, our proposal primarily seeks to

ensure the conditions necessary for its livability and

use by the client and his family, and for that needed

some "fitness" given the existing low areas.

In the mentioned first house, we propose one house

unit spread across three divisions rooms, kitchen and

2 IS, and the second house, also proposed the

creation of one house unit but it spread over only 2

divisions rooms, kitchen and IS.

In relation to outdoor spaces, the proposal also

seeks to emphasize and highlight certain aspects

and features of existing buildings, particularly in terms

of materials and coatings, thus achieving maintain

the characteristics of a country house. However, it

was also our desire to integrate some current

materials, thus achieving not only maintain its original

characteristics but also giving it a more

contemporary and modern look.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION

In terms of volume and because of the constraints

offered by the terrain, either by its size or by its shape,

compelled us to be more careful in the implementation

of the house, in particular in its relation to the

surroundings, seeking a spatial and visual continuity

between the inner house, the environment and outdoor

spaces now proposed.

In this sense, we located the social and service spaces

on the ground floor, connected either with the view to

the West or to the central courtyard proposed, and the

top floor, more private, integrating the family rooms ,

which sought primarily to sun exposure and overlooking

the sea.

In this context, and given the very solar orientation,

sought to define two distinct zones in terms of views

and exposure. On the one hand an area that relates to

the West with the view and the other an area more

facing south in search of warmth and sunshine, thus

achieving a recreation area next to the living room and

garden more enjoyable.

Thus, housing turns his back on the east, projecting

visually for the view to the west, and south to the

courtyard, being much more permeable seeking

greater relationship between exterior and interior.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION

This project comes from a reflection on that act of living

itself, taking into consideration the various aspects that

may determine whether it is the needs and wishes of its

future inhabitants or by the place and environment and

how these may influence the project .

In this sense, and looking for a volumetric that

integrated onsite, we opted for a house organized over

two floors, maintaining a relationship in terms of

heights, balanced with the other built environment. We

also sought to protect the house from the adjoining

street, thus ensuring the necessary privacy to the main

interior spaces.

The access to house is made by East / North, thereby

releasing the spaces in the South and West areas for

leisure and garden. Therefore, we propose for the

North / East side, a facade quite closed, with few

openings and on the other hand, in the South / West, a

facade much more permeable, looking not only for a

higher relation between inner and outer spaces, as well

as the enjoyment of the sunlight.

The entrance zone is specially designed in terms of its

location, where we sought to place the lobby in a

central area, thus ensuring a good distribution to the

social and functional areas, as well as a small office

and the stairs to the upper floor where the family

bedrooms are located.
