LUX Apartments in Praia da Barra – Portugal Property
The land is located between the beginning of the urban tissue and of Barra beach’s dunes – Ilhavo, given its location, the project is based on absorbing all the characteristics present in the place, personifying the horizontality present in the horizon line is the concept for the building, which translates into the blades created around the main body.
In this way, the volume created seeks an elevation and design relationship in order to give continuity to the existing urban fabric. In order for there to be harmony between the new and the place, the building seeks to absorb the predominant textures and tones in its materiality.
The ocher concrete of the sheets and the green of the zinc show the color of the sand and vegetation, thus molding the building to the place.
The sea and natural light are predomi-nant elements both outside and inside the building, its opening to the horizon defines the projection of the design lines.
Portuguese:
O terreno situa-se entre o inicio da malha urbana e as Dunas da praia da Barra – Ilhavo, face à localização do mesmo, o projeto tem como base absorver nele todas as características presentes no lugar, personificar a horizontalidade presente na linha do horizonte é o conceito para o edifício, que se traduz nas lâminas criadas em torno do corpo principal.
Desta forma, o volume criado procura uma relação altimétrica e de desenho de forma a dar continuidade ao tecido urbano existente. Para que haja uma harmonia entre o novo e o lugar, o edifício procura na sua materialidade absorver as texturas e as tonalidades predominantes.
O betão ocre das laminas e o verde do zinco transparecem a coloração da areia e da vegetação, moldando assim o edifício ao lugar. O mar e a luz natural são elementos predominantes tanto no exterior como no interior do edifício, a sua abertura para o horizonte define a projeção das linhas do desenho.
