▏House in Mundão
The land where the house is located has a regular, longitudinal shape and is perpendicular to Campo da Bola Street, in the parish of Mundão, located northeast of Viseu. The solar orientation (from the street to the interior) is West – East. Regarding the topography, the plot has a steep slope, ascending from the entrance. This morphological condition of the land influenced the programmatic and volumetric shape of the building.
With a decidedly intimate design, the house is essentially oriented towards the east-facing garden, where all the living spaces are located. This arrangement establishes a perfect connection with the outdoor space, in harmony with the leisure area that includes a barbecue and a swimming pool.
▏The Main Material Used
Regarding materials, the house was built using a combination of elements that provide solidity, coziness, durability, and a timeless design. The main material used is reinforced concrete, offering austere plasticity and ensuring its stability over time. The natural wood slats used both outside and inside create a cozy environment and integration with the surrounding landscape.
The constantly changing natural light, which penetrates through the glazed openings, the patio, and the skylights, continuously transforms the spaces and creates a mutable and dynamic atmosphere throughout the day and across the different seasons of the year, promoting tranquility and family refuge.
▏House’s Layout
As for the house’s layout, the interior spatial distribution is separated by function and floors. The social/service area on the ground floor consists of the garage and laundry room, separated by an exterior patio facing the entrance hall, a service bathroom, an open space with kitchen, dining room, and living room, and also an office. On the first floor, the private area consists of a living/reading area, bedrooms, all with private bathrooms, and the master suite with a walk-in closet. All bedrooms have direct access to an east-facing balcony overlooking the pool.
