Casa de Campo em Mouriscas

This project is located in the centre of the country, on a typical Portugese village. Here, the intention is to build a country house for familiar retreats on the months of summer. The construction was implemented along the land, merging itself with the landscape, preserving the entirety of the existing tree strctures. The L-shaped volume rises two floors on the southwest end, allowing a unique view of the sunset.

The design of a house for seasonal use challenged us to create a specific spatial and programmatic concept. The organization of the interior favors the coexistence of those who inhabit the place and also creates a close permanent relationship between the interior and exterior. On the exterior, a contemporary language is developed through the projection of a modern volume, with straight lines and wide openings, simultaneously using traditional materials, in order to achieve a harmonious integration between the building and its surroundings.
