Three House_Sleeping Pod
When the house you dreamed of as a child becomes architecture.
About project
Who wouldn't want to sleep in a treehouse, surrounded by nature?
Nothing is impossible for this project, born from an international architecture competition with the theme of sleeping pod.
The natural landscape of the Portuguese Valley of Moses surrounds every corner of this pod, whose highlight is the rooftop terrace that, like a diving board over the forest, allows you to enjoy magnificent sunsets.
Corten steel, cork wood, and photovoltaic glass are the three materials used for the structure, all mixed with exceptional points of view and pure and bold architectural cuts. All that remains is to enjoy the spaces of this mini living unit, such as the suspended terrace where you can do yoga or the shower hidden by a mashrabiyya system whose motif recalls that of the typical Portuguese azulejos. You can go back to being a child.
