Starting from an empty lot, in a neighbourhood without a defined identity, in a suburban context resulting from years of territorial policies absence, on the outskirts of Lisbon, it's like starting a process of metamorphosis, without harming the surroundings. We believe our intervention will have an impact on the cohesion of the urban fabric, and on the neighbourhood's visual quality, so we saw this responsibility as an opportunity to do things better and differently, always keeping in mind what we were asked to do: design a modern house that takes advantage of the landscape and the horizon.
