House in Quinta do Lago


This project for a plot in Quinta do Lago sought to frame the house as a lifestyle statement. The design of the house is thus optimized to serve the typical functions of a holiday house designed for summer periods.

Nature (a small pine forest) is invited to be part of the house and water is the main element associated with the entire construction.

The patio, on the -1 floor, allows direct access from the garage to the pool area where all attention is focused and also allows to bring light to the -1 floor.

The private areas (rooms) are located on floors 1 and -1, being marked by opaque privacy. This opacity clearly contrasts with the transparency and social ostentation that characterizes the ground floor, where the most public areas are located, such as the living room, the dining room, the kitchen, the deck and the pool.
