Pavillon House Front Facade Zenmalist

Diogo Aguiar Studio has realized this Zen and Minimalist Pavillion House based in the mountains of Guimarães. To extend the existing granite wine cellar, the architects created a first-floor extension in wood. This minimal module associates the five feng-shui elements, wood, water, earth, metal, and water.

The purpose of this construction was to create a harmonious and comfortable shelter in the middle of the vineyard. Pavillion House is open to the surrounding, but in the meantime, it is cozy space allowing a quiet retreat.
A texture is conceived by covering the wall with vertical wooden slats. Ceiling and floor stand in a dark palette that defines both as an absent matter, while helping to rescue the exterior landscape, emphasizing its mutant presence in the inner space.
