Cora House, designed by Bloco Arquitectos, aims to function as a device to exacerbate the perception of its context – the modified topography and the local natural light conditions. The project creates a “promenade architecturale” that could reveal specific views towards its immediate surroundings. The solidity of the front facade is opposed to back facade, marked by big transparent openings and by the apparent fragility of the steel structure of the varandas.

The aim was to create a feeling of entering into a den, which is isolated from everything else.
