TL;DR Summary

Architect Ricardo Bak Gordon's 'House in Rua São Francisco de Borja' in Lisbon, Portugal, features a glimmering tile facade that engages with the urban context and establishes a dialogue with the internal environments of the house. The house primarily comprises two interconnected volumes, which enclose a central patio accessible via a covered loggia adorned entirely with handmade tiles. The careful selection of materials, including exposed concrete, green handmade tiles, anodized aluminum frames, and Thermo modified wood, enhances the visual appeal and establishes a sense of place and identity within the local context.
