HOUSING
VILA VERDE, BRAGA

The concept of the project consisted on revitalizing an old mansion and relating it with a group of three new volumes that are connected to it.

These new volumes are linked to the mansion through a walkway covered with glass, repeating the concept of the connections among the new volumes.

The new volumes receive the house program: in the first volume the kitchen and the dinning room, in the second, the hall, library and work studio and in the third volumes, appear the living room and four bedrooms.

The whole house is covered with stone to give the volumes a quite solid image even with the brute contrast to the delicate connections.
