Preserving Heritage: A Century-Old Cork Oak Inspires Modern Home Design

In the serene rural setting of Figueiró – Amarante, the "House of the Cork Oak" project harmoniously integrates modern architecture with the natural landscape, centered around a century-old Cork Oak tree. The design prioritizes the preservation of the tree and respects the surrounding environment, with careful consideration given to solar exposure and landscape features. Internally, the house is functional yet spacious, catering to the needs of a modern family. With its seamless blend of indoor and outdoor spaces, the project embodies a commitment to respectful coexistence with nature, ensuring that the Cork Oak remains a cherished centerpiece for generations to come.
