In Santa Marinha we had to make three entrances. I don't remember doing anything like that, although that's what we enjoy the most - drawing the entrance, and also drawing the terrain. And it is always the most difficult delivery.

A four-storey family home spanning over 2500 sq.ft, this residence more than rises above its challenges. The plot was a linear, narrow rectangle of 16.5 ft x 40 ft, posing to be the main challenge for this project. Flanked by homes on either sid...

The public spaces were expanded volumetrically to emphasize their importance as congregational spaces. The concept of cross-axes has been...
