Casa dos Mores by Marlene Uldschmidt Architects Studio
Casa dos Mores is a project designed by Marlene Uldschmidt Architects Studio, a single-wall house to shelter love from prying eyes. An outstanding lookout point at the peak of a cliff, with open views of the ocean and the infinite horizon, yet nestled within exuberant vegetation and sheltered from the elements and the prying eyes of majestic trees. The house is pure serenity, filled with the scent of the sea and graced by the sound of wandering birds, it is as close as living on a permanent holiday feels like. Photography by Renee Kemps.

The topography of this site offered the not-so-common opportunity to design a house that defies the distinction between indoors and outdoors thanks to full-height windows all around while maintaining the feeling of complete privacy and exclusive isolation. The building seems gently laid upon the cliff of which it seconds and follows every gentle drop and bend, every sinuosity and shape. The roof is also carefully laid, rising towards a secular pine nearby and suggesting an open dialogue between now and eternity, almost a weightless completion of this delicate union of building and land.
To complete this perfect union, the use of timber and glass has minimised the impact that the typically Portuguese white walls would have created: bright and bold, distinctive and absolute, breaking the flow that characterises the entire design.
Indoors, the bright spaces are defined...
