The house stands on a wooded hillside in front of the Atlantic south coast of Portugal. The existing forest was removed only where the house was built. Individual trees that became diseased during construction, but also others that had previously become diseased, were replanted to preserve the character of the forest and the surrounding nature. Due to the forest it was necessary to get light into the living room and therefore the traditional concept was changed, the bedrooms are on the ground floor and have natural shading from the trees, the large living room with kitchen where the family mainly meets is on the upper floor , flooded with light in the treetops overlooking the Atlantic Ocean. The outdoor area is a cantilever terrace that does not cover the forest floor, but shades and covers the entrance to the garage in the basement. There is also a large outdoor area on the roof terrace of this part of the building, which made further clearing of the forest for open spaces unnecessary. The 360 degree view above the tree tops of the ocean and landscape can be enjoyed almost all year round. The master bedroom ou suite is in the two-storey part of the building, which also contains all the important ancillary rooms such as a bathroom and a guest room. The living room, which is mostly only used in the evenings, is located in the one-storey part of the building together with two children's rooms, each with a bathroom. This also ensures a lot of space and an acoustic separation of these rooms for children and grandchildren. On the roof of this part of the building there is a photovoltaic system and panels for thermal solar energy - both systems not visible from the neighbouring properties or the street.
