Póvoa House / WAATAA

The project begins with the perception of the place. More than just looking exclusively at the pre-existing building, it was important to look at the broader context, its potentialities, constraints, and the relationships established within it. These relationships support the inherent idea of the project. Located in Nandufe (Tondela), the house inspires itself from this place of traditions with history, translating them into new spatial and constructive approaches. It shapes itself with sobriety, flexibility, and balance to a contemporary lifestyle. Functionality merges with aesthetics, art, and natural elements. The house sustains the surrounding terrain, nestled in a small plot adjacent to the street, a public space that relates in a hybrid way to the private interior space. It alternates between closure and openness in a gradual and controlled transition.
