Located in the Algarve, this contemporary garden of refuge responds to a Mediterranean climate of drought and scarcity, where limitation shapes form. Conceived as both family residence and high-end rental retreat, it balances collective use and contemplation through shade, coolness, filtered light, and a living soundscape. Abundance is therefore understood not as accumulation, but as precision: a calibrated equilibrium between climate, resources, sensory experience, and biophilia. A contemporary reinterpretation of paradise — formally restrained, climatically intelligent, and deeply immersive.
