Portico House

A compact residence defined by its relationship with the surrounding woodland.

This house utilizes a series of deep covered thresholds that extend the living areas into the natural landscape. The structure is built using locally sourced timber, ensuring that the building ages gracefully within its environment. Its interior layout is open and flexible, designed to provide a quiet, contemplative space that responds to the changing light throughout the day.
