Two Houses in Ponte de Lima

A very bend site.
Two houses with the same program.
Two themes to essay:
- To be enveloped by the landscape, where the gave from the inside is low, leveling, imminent.
- To raise of the pendent where the look is high, distant, in depth until the mountain.
Two houses, one program, two essays, that have no meaning if separated.
As F. Távora used to say in his classes: “…in architecture the opposite is also true”.
