House in Brito

House in Brito

Project Description

The shape of the house was arranged around the patio that structured the farm buildings.
The ground floor houses all the areas needed for everyday life. On the first floor there are the guest rooms. In order to appropriate the site and provide an unusual feature, the living room was positioned between the patio and the valley’s extensive landscape. The glazed living room rises above the ground, allowing water from the spring to flow towards the river.
