Andrea + Joan Arquitectes designed the House on the Woods in Tarragona, Spain. Designed in 2023, the project features the rehabilitation of an old rural dwelling and its surroundings. It is conceived as an occasional residence, intended as a refuge integrated into the forest.
The preexisting dwelling lies within a set of disused stone walls, where a Mediterranean forest of pine and oak trees has grown over the years, creating a synergy between the architecture and the landscape.
Rómulo Neto Arquitetos designed the Casa Cor de Sal in Aveiro, Portugal. Completed in 2022, this house reflects a fusion of marine atmosphere and functional design. The design incorporates elements like ceramics, wood, and aluminum, with a focus on maintaining a close connection between indoor and outdoor spaces. An interior patio serves as a link, enhancing natural light. The layout ensures the living area on the upper floor maximizes views of the surrounding water landscape.
