Housing

— Herdade do Redondo

The intervention is based on a main longitudinal axis, defined by the circulation corridor, along which the rest of the programme is formed and distributed. From this axis, each function is assumed with its own distinctive language, transforming the house into an experimental set, where each function of the dwelling is hierarchised according to volumes with different forms, highlighting different heights and varying the materials.

This attitude results in an enormous clarity of functional distribution and a wealth of interior and exterior spaces, without monotony or anonymity. The house combines a more traditional language, used in the cloister and the porticoed corridor, with a more contemporary and innovative approach, where flat roofs, roofs with an inverted slope or in a vault are experienced, together with the large windows, in a coexistence that is complementary and current.

Despite the level of experimentation and the differentiation of volumetry and materiality, the building has been thought and designed as a whole that is evident as a result of a global conception in which the different parts dialogue among themselves to create a unified and homogeneous whole, where the crossings, connections and differentiations between the spaces create rich and diversified spatial and architectural situations.
