Casa da Encosta is a house located in Santo Tirso, Portugal, designed in 2021 by Ricardo Azevedo Arquitecto. The design features a linear, single-story structure to create an inward-looking outdoor space, sheltered from a less appealing surrounding.
The House of Horns by WOJR is located in Los Altos Hills, United States. Enfolding an existing foundation, the house features a single-story upper level with above-ground chambers, a centerline stone fireplace carved from Danby marble and a cave-like bathing space bound by an ovoid column. Designed to be “an assemblage of instruments” capturing the natural cycles, it is surrounded by a wild meadow landscape of California-native grasses and scrub.
