Located in the immense spontaneous pine forest in Praia Verde, South of Portugal, Casa da Praia is perfectly harmonized with the winds by the sea and the sculptural pine trees that extend along the valley.
The architectural intervention in this mystique and the beautiful valley had as a main challenge to assure the presence and sensation of texture, lights, and shadows inside the space.
OTIIMA Minimalist Pivot System was introduced in space to enhance the stunning looks and contemporary style. The imperceptible hinge, on the top and bottom side of the door, allows it to rotate on the vertical axis effortlessly. In terms of functionality and aesthetics, there is an absolute combination with the rest of the house, as seeks to preserve the essence of the surrounding landscape.
