Two rooms and a courtyard
The house is two volumes — one for living, one for sleeping — joined by a walled courtyard that blocks the Atlantic wind.
Openings are few and precise. Each frames a single thing: a pine, the rice fields, a line of horizon.
White, but not bright
The lime render is mixed with local sand, giving the walls a warm, matte surface that softens the summer glare.
