The house is called Casa da Ria as it is near the Alvor Estuary, over which it has panoramic and ever changing views due to the varying tides. The plot is extensive and slopes steeply to the north-west, where the wide views open up to the east and south and the light intensifies. Here, the outdoor spaces and shadows become more appealing.

The villa was created as a peaceful retreat in the heart of the Alps - a place where the owners can slow down, enjoy the views, and spend time together away from the rush of everyday life. From the beginning, it was important to connect the interior with the surroundings - keeping the natural beauty of the landscape.
