*포르투갈의 여행을 닮은 주택[ António Costa Lima ] House in Estoril, Portugal

포르투갈 서브 에스토릴의 좁다란 골목과 협소한 부지에 위치한 이 주택은 직교 격자 무늬를 특징으로 한다. 전 세계 여러 나라의 수많은 곳에서 삶을 유지하고 있는 가족이 실제로 평생동안 누린 여행을 상징하고 있어, 집 자체가 바로 의뢰인과 밀접한 사적인 관계를 지니고 있다고 할 수 있다. 

이웃 건물의 블라인드 벽으로 만들어 진 장애물 공간을 극복해 낼 필요가 있었기에 동쪽으로는 언덕을, 남쪽으로는 바다를 바라보는 풍경과 함께 채광을 좀 더 받아들일 수 있도록 마학적 움직임을 보여주고자 직교 격자 무늬의 구조가 탄생하게 되었다. 

The house is located in one of the characteristic Estoril neighborhoods, which had its origin in a summer occupation and expanded along the edge of the so called Costa do Sol. It features an orthogonal grid, with dense articulation, narrow streets and small scale plots.

The house has a personal relation with the client: it represents the journey of a lifetime of a family that has lived in several places around the world. This idea combined with the need to overcome the obstacle created by the blind wall of the neighbor building, resulted in an ascetic movement from the land that searches the light and views of the valley in the east and the sea to the south.

This promenade around the patio runs through different moments of the house: the ground floor patio, the social area (living room, dining room and kitchen), private area (rooms and offices) and a terrace, including a roof top garden.

It is the extension of this route into the house that defines the entire inner and outer space. The patio result of this continued movement gallery ramp and are defined two distinct altimetric volumes separated from each other through half floor height.
