Casa Luum in Faro, Portugal by pedro domingos arquitectosFebruary 22nd, 2019 by Sumit Singhal
Article source: pedro domingos arquitectos The house is located in the wills of Faro, facing the valley of Agostos. An interior place protected from the coast. A landscape based on the mediterranean tradition, structured by small plots delimited by stone walls, trees, water tanks and small constructions. The house is implanted in this context embedded in the slope twinned to another existing house. A walled patio is the central space of the house, an outside living room that contains a raised water tank.  Image Courtesy © Fernando Guerra – FG+SG

And the upper level: the living room and the solarium. The house is built with an elementary system similar to local popular architecture: white concrete floors, white walls and ceilings, wooden window frames and steel sliding doors. The water containers of the house: bath tank, counters, washbasins and showers, are made in massive local stone. The atmosphere of the house is defined by a set of spaces of light and shadow where the water is the primordial material.
