This article is more than a year old and may contain information that is out of date. Sorry about that.
Completed in 2008 in the small Portuguese town of São Félix da Marinha, this design by Nelson Resende Architects is built into a hillside, looking out towards the coast. Crisp lines, geometric forms, and a vast white exterior combine to create a minimal aesthetic, mimicking the long flowing lines of the horizon the property looks out to.
