House in Praia Grande / Atelier Data

Integrated into the national park of Sintra-Cascais, the house is located near the Praia Grande beach, in Rodízio, Colares. The project aims to build the space (of the house) from the void created between the pine trees, based on the idea of fusion/alliance between the built element and the natural space. The starting point – the existing pine trees – generated a volumetric composition of different volumes, where each of these volumes corresponds to different types of usage. Its disposition on the ground takes into account the sun's orientation, the topography, and the position of the trees (that were meant to keep) providing, at the same time, a system of visual relations with the Serra de Sintra - located to the east.

TECTONIC ARCHITECTURE: Architecture, Starting from the site. Just as salmon must return to the place where they were born, humans have the disposition to return to the place where they were born. It is a slow inertia that spans about 90 years of life. The client was born on this very site in Goseong, Gyeongsangnam-do, and spent his childhood here. The client worked in Seoul and lived here for the rest of his life, and after his parents passed away, he commissioned us to design a house to prepare for life after retirement. Considering that the site has been handed down over eight generations, we focused on on-site analysis before the design. On the site, there was a Korean traditional wooden house where the client’s ancestors lived.
