House In Quinta Patino By Frederico Valsassina

View in gallery

The House in Quinta Patino by architect Frederico Valsassina is a tranquil and modern architectural oasis located on a divine piece of land in Estoril, Portugal. Multiple windows, patios and doorways are cut out of the simple rectangular box design of the home. Minimal ornate details create a soothing and relaxing environment while a carefully manicured lawn allows for optimal outdoor recreational activity. The outdoor patio is home to a living wall that is taken over by plants. Outdoor lights illuminate the surrounding trees in the night. The Quinta Patino home takes the most simple and effective approach to creating a comfortable modern home that incorporates the building and landscape. [via notcot]
