Set on a gentle slope facing the Serra da Estrela,  MyLi House was born from the desire to experience the landscape without filters.
The low, elongated volume settles into the natural terrain, avoiding major earthworks and preserving the site’s original topography. The social area, the heart of the project, opens fully to the outside through a single glazed front, dissolving the boundary between interior and landscape. In this open relationship, the living room, kitchen, and terrace function as one continuous space, crossed by light and framed by the mountain horizon. The architecture balances the minimalism of concrete planes with the rustic solidity of local stone, handcrafted with full mortar joints, and the transparency of glass. Wood, present in key details, adds warmth and texture, softening the controlled austerity of the remaining materials. Together, stone, glass, concrete, and wood create a restrained palette that will evolve naturally with the climate and surrounding vegetation.

MyLi House reimagines the site to embrace a contemporary form, simple, elegant, and grounded. Discreet yet fully present, it is a belvedere house where every room frames the mountain and every material tells a story.
