|
The field is inserted in a fragmented allotment of distinct and irregular configurations. This allotment urbanised a small hill near the centre of Sever do Vouga. |
|
|
The lot of the house, in a trapezium shape around 500 m², has a strong pitch from the access row, the highest quota, until the lowest area, near a urban road placed 7 m below the southwest limit. |
|
|
The house is implemented in the superior part of the lot, parallel with the limit of the north wall, where there is a circulation course from the entrance yard and garage to the inferior ground terrace and the swimming pool platform, placed one more level below. |
|
|
The access to the house main entrance, placed at ground-floor level, is made through a covered course from the garage porch until the front-door, crossing a garden yard that also establishes the division between the garage and the habitation volumes. |
|
|
Distributed among two floors, the house is articulated with interior stairs. The social area and the public spaces of the house (living-room; dining-room and kitchen) are on the ground-floor, while the resting areas, bathrooms and swimming-pool are on the first floor. Almost all the spans are open to southwest, towards the distant mountains landscape. |
