Travessa de Patrocinio – house in the "coat" from Portuguese designers

Travessa de Patrocinio is a beautiful Mediterranean home in Lisbon (Portugal), which is the result of joint creativity of three designers (Luis Rebelo de Andrade, Tiago Rebelo de Andrade and Manuel Cachao Tojal).


      

Minimalist architecture of the building is wrapped in a thick coat of vegetation, growing vertically.



        

Vertical garden on the facade is formed of 4500 units of plants, representing 25 different Mediterranean species. The total area of the "coat" made up of about 100 square meters.



Each of the four floors of the house gives its inhabitants in different flavors, such as lavender or rosemary. The roof is a no less emotional space with swimming pool. It is an oasis in the urban "jungle", where you can completely relax and surrender to the contemplation of the beautiful views of the surrounding landscape.
