Nuno Brandao Costa designed this house for a close friend. The site is situated in a rural lanscape thus all of the built space was kept at ground level in two separate concrete volumes, grazing against the existing granite wall that set the geometry of the plan. The bedrooms, kitchen, office and garage were condensed tightly together plus sliding doors and panels with very wide openings to the outside. The scale of the site was always present this project as with its very large living room and private suite a floor above. Concrete, plaster with iron oxide, solid wooden frames, old Riga wood flooring, stainless-steel sheet-covering, irregular granite stone are all chosen for the construction of the house and its paths.
