Its position marks the transition between the urban landscape of the city of Santo Tirso, and the natural landscape of a cultivated valley.

The project is conceived starting from these existing values: the topography and the border condition.

A clear system is organized inside “telluric” volumes gravitating around a big central space. The patios and openings between the volumes register the experience of light during the day.
