House Design Uses Lime Render to Reflect Sandy Coastal Landscape | Casa da Encosta

Описание: #housedesign #landscape #carvalhal
Casa da Encosta, designed by Lisbon-based studio SIA Arquitectura and located in Grândola, Portugal, features a main home and four nearly identical guesthouses built using traditional materials such as wood and lime render. Inspired by the traditional architecture of Portugal's coastal region, the design emphasizes privacy by arranging the house volumes around a central courtyard, creating a protective wall. The main house includes spacious living areas with large sliding doors, a pitched wooden roof, and private courtyards, while the guesthouses maintain a consistent design with defined living, bedroom, and bathroom spaces. The use of a restricted material palette throughout the interiors creates a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor spaces. Established in 2007, SIA Arquitectura continues to create responsive designs that harmonize with their natural surroundings.
