Located on the edge of the Oitavos Dunes golf course, near Cascais, in the Sintra-Cascais National Park, The Wall House is indescribable. You look at it, and you like it… The house is defined by its lines, cuts, and essential walls. Apparently simple, basic. Minimalists, some would say, 'engaging' with the natural elements of the surrounding landscape, others would affirm.
A home open to the outside, where glass walls and surfaces give it light and transparency, but where movable wooden panels provide the utmost privacy and protection against the strong Atlantic wind.
One element gains importance throughout the project: water. The pools are more than just pools, the large glass panels are more than just glass, they are living and translucent elements of its 'skin'.
This residence combines minimalism and elegance with a Mediterranean culture adapted to the Atlantic coast. The two pools intersect in the patio, one on the ground and the other suspended in the air, creating an impressive sight.
With a glass wall that opens to the golf course, the house allows the golf course view to be enjoyed from both the interior and exterior.
With its innovative architecture and well-integrated interior and exterior spaces, the Wall House is a true contemporary masterpiece, offering an unparalleled residential experience.
