House in Tavira

Eduardo Souto de Moura – House in Tavira, Algarve, Portogallo, 1991-1994

This architecture is located on top of a hill in the village of Luz de Tavira, in a rural area and territory. Its elevated position allows it to enjoy a wide panorama.
The construction is very simple and elementary, the walls seem large and heavy, as Souto de Moura said, to allow survival, the survival of architecture.
