Text description provided by the architects. This building is located in a Special Protection Zone, on the outskirts of the city center of Guimarães, which is classified by Unesco as a World Heritage Site since 2001. It is a single-family house from the 1930s, with exposed stone masonry walls, wooden floor, and cover structures, iron railings, and wooden window frames with organic motifs inspired by the “earth” and “sea”. Traces of Art Nouveau influence are also present. The building was the object of an intervention in the 1980s, which completely destroyed its interior and expanded the original construction on the east side, deeply mischaracterizing it.
