The House is located in the Rua do Lindo Vale, in the city of Porto. It is a row-house, 3 stories high, built on a plot of 5 m width and 40 m length. This building has four fundamental characteristics. The first is that the architects are also the clients of this project. The design of the Architect’s House is, undoubtedly, a unique challenge within the design of the House, as an architectural programme, due to the coincidence between the ‘architect’ and the ‘client’, and due to the possibility of the spatial realization of the architect’s own residential experience. 

The second characteristic is the sound sense of urbanity of this House. This is not a house built in the periphery of the city, in a plot of medium- or large-size, but a House erected in the central area of the city, an area with an intense urban life, in a long and narrow plot that raises a number of spatial constraints. Based on the regulations of the plan in force, for a building to be erected on this plot it should maintain the alignment of adjacent buildings, a maximum height inferior to the width of the street, and a high permeability in the back of the plot. The definition of this volume (by the regulations of the plan) led to an interior organization of the dwelling that is, somehow, similar to the inner structure of the typical houses of Porto – two lit rooms near the two façades of the house and a third non lit room in the core of the house. The staircase is located in this core. In each floor, the third room corresponds to: the library (which is opened to the office) and the bathroom in the ground floor; the kitchen (which is opened to the dining and living rooms) on the first floor; and a patio in the second floor. 

The third characteristic is the simplicity of design and materials. The integration of this House within the existing buildings is based, in a first moment, on a careful volumetric articulation and, second, on the simplicity of design of the front and rear façades – the structure, the door and windows, and the gate – reinforced by the use of one single color. Inside the house this simplicity continues: in an interior organization layout that is very similar in all floors; in the search for ‘true’ in construction; and in a spatial continuity between the three floors, which is enhanced by the design of the stair and of the vertical movement. This simplicity is also underlined by the use of a restricted range of materials in all rooms, including both the kitchen and the bathrooms: walls and ceilings are painted white, pavements are of beige vinyl floor, and wooden doors are painted white. 

 Finally, the House is very flexible. The repeated use of a set of very simple elements introduced a great versatility in the day-to-day living of the House: i) each window, on the front and rear façades, has two sets of shutters – one set positioned between 0 and 0.90m high, and another set positioned between 0.90 m and 2.65 m high; ii) all rooms, except the bathrooms, have sliding doors that can be fully collected by the interior walls allowing, as such, a smoothness movement between different rooms. 

The House in the Rua do Lindo Vale is clearly an urban house belonging to ‘that’ particular place. It is the spatial expression of the residential experience of their architects; erected on a great simplicity of design and materials, achieving its high quality through a rigorous sense of construction and a high spatial versatility.

这所房子位于波尔图市的林多山谷。它是一个行屋，高3层，建在5M宽，40M长的地块上。这座建筑有四个基本特征。第一，建筑师也是这个项目的客户。毫无疑问，由于“建筑师”和“客户”之间的巧合，建筑师住宅的设计在房屋设计中是一个独特的挑战，作为一个建筑方案，并且由于空间实现的可能性，建筑师自己的居住体验。

第二个特点是这所房子很有礼貌。这不是建在城市外围的一座中型或大型地块上的房子，而是建在城市中心地区的一座房屋，这个地区有着强烈的城市生活，在一个长而狭窄的情节中产生了一些空间限制。根据现行规划的规定，在该地块上建造的建筑物应保持相邻建筑物的对齐，高度应低于街道的宽度，并在地块背面具有高渗透性。（根据计划的规定）这卷书的定义导致了住宅的内部组织，与波尔图典型房屋的内部结构相似——在房子的两个法亚德附近有两间有照明的房间，而在房子的核心有第三间没有照明的房间。楼梯就在这个核心。在每一层，第三个房间对应：图书馆（向办公室开放）和一楼的浴室；一楼的厨房（向餐厅和起居室开放）；二楼有个露台 

第三个特点是设计和材料简单。将这所房子与现有的建筑结合起来，首先是建立在仔细的体积连接上，其次是建筑结构、门和窗户设计的简单性上，和门-加强使用单一的颜色。在房子内部，这种简单性继续存在：在所有楼层都非常相似的内部组织布局中；在建筑中寻找“真”；以及在三层之间的空间连续性中，楼梯的设计和垂直的运动都增强了它。所有房间，包括厨房和浴室，都使用了限制范围的材料：墙壁和天花板被漆成白色，人行道被漆成米色乙烯基地板，木门被漆成白色。

最后，房子很灵活。重复使用一组非常简单的元素，给房子的日常生活带来了很大的多样性：我）每个窗口，在前面和后面的Fa<UNK>ades，有两套百叶窗----一套位于0到0.9米高之间，还有一组位于0.90米至2.65米高之间；II）除浴室外，所有房间都有滑动门，可以通过内部墙壁完全收集，从而在不同房间之间进行平滑运动。 

Lindo Vale的房子显然是属于“那个”地方的城市房子。它是其建筑师居住体验的空间表达；建筑在设计和材料的极大的简单性之上，通过严谨的建筑感和高度的空间多样性来实现其高质量。
