15 houses designed for contemporary living in Portugal

A selection of domestic architectures published by Domus to explore the most recent chapters in a story made of a deeper sensitivity to natural and relational landscape.

Throughout the second half of the twentieth century, Portugal has been the epicenter of a research that has soon become a unique reference for contemporary architecture, up to representing a foundation for historian Kenneth Frampton’s highly successful theoretical category of critical regionalism. It is a research made of a deep connection with the local dimension of natural, settlement and, above all, human landscape; of poetics of formal simplicity; and, above all, of a great attention to the domestic dimension of architecture, to the house as the fundamental unit of the built landscape.

From Álvaro Siza to Eduardo Souto de Moura several relevant names have contributed to building a story that today develops day by day in projects of houses and interiors that carry on such legacy by writing new chapters, as much different among themselves as they are from their original references. Among those that Domus has published in recent months, we have chosen 15 examples capable of disclosing this story in all its different aspects.

A house that revolves around the patio

An apartment in Amarante, Portugal, within a building on the street, has been transformed into a well-divided space that seems to be suspended and almost in motion. The renovation project is by studio Fala, which renovated the interior and facades while trying to preserve the building’s history and original traits, at the same time adding new features.

If one does not give in to size prejudice, in fact this tiny but elegant piece of architecture has all the features of a precious jewel set in a lush garden that seems to have come straight out of Henri Rousseau’s painting “The Dream”, from which the designers of Fala Atelier drew their inspiration (minus the lions, elephants and exotic birds).

Paradinha is a tourist complex in the Portuguese mountain landscape of Aldeia da Paradinha, Alvarenga. Summary, the firm in charge of the project, chose – also driven by the naturalistic conformation of the place – to divide the holiday structure into eleven small cabins, placing them on the plot and thus obtaining a village. A traditional building would in fact have been, in the words of the architects, “difficult and extremely expensive”. Read full article here
