SÃO ROQUE HOUSE | UrbanCore Architects
Oliveira de Azeméis, Portugal / Portugal / 2011
The São Roque House in Oliveira de Azeméis is a showcase of strategic design and functionality, nestled between two streets to maximize space and blend with its surroundings. Spanning 600m², this residence is perfect for a family of four.
The ground level hosts the social areas, including an entrance hall, living and dining rooms, a kitchen, a service toilet, and an office with a WC, all set within a sleek, gray-colored volume. The upper floor features private bedrooms with individual WCs, arranged in a wedge-shaped layout for unique views and a dynamic form.
The basement level (-1) includes practical spaces like a laundry room, storage room, and garage. The height difference between the two roads creates a two-story appearance on the south side and a three-story structure on the north side, topped with a green roof to minimize visual impact.
This meticulous design by Urban Core Architects integrates functionality with aesthetic appeal, creating a harmonious living space that stands out for its detailed and sustainable approach.
