This article is more than a year old and may contain information that is out of date. Sorry about that.
This project, completed in São Miguel, Portugal, in 2011 consists of 27 single-family dwellings.
Each of the 27 houses follows the same basic layout, but the properties were designed with the versatility of the space in mind – each house can be modified to suit the specific needs of the inhabitants, whilst maintaining a unified community aesthetic.
