Three sisters

proposal for three houses in Alcácer Do Sal, Portugal, 2018

preliminary study

On the slope we discover the water, slowly, while our body advances and descends, as the landscape naturally flows. This is how the idea of each house starts: an invitation to search and to trust, to transform and to discover.

Each house starts from the same solid volume, white, strong, and well rooted. As you descend towards the water, the houses become lighter using timber which allows for flexibility and weightlessness.

The three sisters have the same origin, but each one follows its own way, with its shape, its colour, its views...Circumstance and desire will draw each house; any tree can be reason- a sun beam- shadow – a special view
