Located in Carcavelos, Portugal the DJ House by [i]da Arquitectos – Ivan de Sousa + Inês Antunes – features a stunning central patio that divides the house into two parts and organizes the interior spaces. Large apertures establish the contact between interior and exterior. In the horizontal space the relationship is made by the continuity with the garden while in the vertical space is the blue sky that dominates the entire landscape. The private areas, one suite and two bedrooms, are located in the upper level as well as the access to the roof terrace. The simplicity of the facades contrasts with the complexity of the different spaces of the house while the white wall surfaces and the gray shades of the floors give give the house a very elegant and minimalist character.
