QUINTA DAS BORRALHAS . Guimarães

Correia/Ragazzi Arquitectos

Entering the farm it is clear the relation between the volume of the new construction in harmony with the rehabilitated pre-existences, surrounding an existing stone pavement that define a courtyard which is both living area but also area for the farm chores. The set reframes and values the existent granary, opposed to the house’s cantilevered suite, with the granite wine press that finishes the opposite side of the courtyard.
