四分宅是一座度假屋，其位于葡萄牙北部的一座大树繁茂，可以俯瞰城市美景与遥望远山的高地上，四座尺寸相同但是方向不同的双坡屋顶小屋组成了一个温馨家。这四座小屋是彼此分离的，但又是相连的—一座玻璃顶和玻璃墙面的连廊联系着它们。住户仿佛就生活在树荫之下。

小小的四分宅居然也有三层。地下室是车库，藏酒室和洗衣房。主卧在地面层东侧，饭厅和客厅面西，朝向无敌观景大平台。客厅里有一个小小的办公室夹层。采用当地花岗岩（卫生间），木材（外墙，底板，楼梯），锌（屋顶）打造出一个与树木和谐共存的温馨居所。

This holiday house for a family of four is located in the north of Portugal. It’s shape is defined by the same number of individual volumes. They have similar dimensions but distinct orientations. Three of the volumes are orthogonally organized around a core, whilst a fourth rotates to match the direction of an existing neighbouring building. The proximity between the two constructions led to a desired dialogue. The modest dimensions of the existing building determined the scale of the house while the vernacular identity influenced its layout. Each volume has a two slope roof. Besides emphasizing its individuality it enabled to increase the plasticity of the composition.

The volumes are separated but disposed at a critical distance. It creates an interstitial space covered by a flat transparent roof and full size windows. It is a special space with a hybrid character. The considerable dematerialization of its limits leads to be felt as both internal and external. This solution meets the clients requirement to design a house with strong links with the surroundings. When moving from one room to another it allows to confortably “walk through the leaves”.

The house is organized in three floors. On the basement there is a garage, wine storage and laundry room. On the main floor the bedrooms are located on the east side, while the kitchen, dining room and living room are placed on the west, close to a terrace with privileged view to a valey. Over the living room there is a mezzanine with a small office.

The global coherence of the house highly depended on the material choice. The combination of local granite for the embasement, patinated pine boards on the walls and zinc on the roof granted a rich silver homogenity combining different tones and textures.
