THE SPACES THAT inspire
Casa Verde, by M2 Senos Arquitectos, sits among the dunes of Costa Nova. A green volume over a concrete base that reinterprets the traditional palheiros of this coastal region.
Casa do Alpendre, designed by Vasco Burnay Arquitectura, stands out as a striking pink house in Vila Franca de Xira. Through a clever L-shaped layout, the villa shields itself from its industrial surroundings to open southwards, creating a luminous courtyard where the long porch meets the pool.
In Esmoriz, Mimosa House by Pedro Henrique Arquitecto pairs robust materials like concrete and corten steel with the lightness of glass, standing out for its central courtyard where a circular opening frames the sky above the pool.
Casa A, designed by L2C Arquitetura in Braga, is a concrete house on a steep site, defined by horizontal planes that adapt to the slope and open toward the landscape.
House SM by Mário Alves Arquitetura is a brown zinc house in Ílhavo that reinterprets vernacular architecture and blends with the surrounding vegetation, creating continuity between interior and exterior.
"I'm a husband, father of two boys, passionate about architecture and I have the privilege of doing what I love: photographing architecture."
