House RA by Ana Reis




This house builded in Vila Nova de Gaia the Architect is Ana Reis from Portuguese , who has completed this family house.The 2-storey home is characterised by white, clean-cut volumes arranged around an internal courtyard.



And here’s some more information from The Architect:

House RA

The house is for a young couple with two kids. The building volume, shape and location are the result of different restrictions from the municipality in terms of height, distances from the street and surrounding buildings. The programme is articulated within the available limits and around an internal courtyard. Communal areas: living room, dining room and kitchen as well as some storage areas and powder room are located on the ground floor and directly connected with the protected garden.Private areas: bedrooms, study and toilets are located on the upper floor. This internal separation of communal and private space is continuous with the buildings relationship with the public domain. The metal structure allows the absence of columns and big windows.
