The layout responds to site conditions by enclosing two key frontages, the street-facing and north-facing sides, while orienting the primary living areas toward the south and west.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The plan is organized along a diagonal axis formed by the folding of the L-shape. This axis establishes a spatial transition between the private zones, including the bedrooms, and the social areas such as the living room and kitchen. The main entrance and technical spaces are located at this intersection, serving as a pivot within the overall layout. The design of this hinge point introduces a distinct spatial identity, guided by the diagonal that defines the architectural strategy.<\/p>\n<p>all images courtesy of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.m-ao.pt\/\">Martins Architecture Office<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wow wow-yellow\">sloping roof extends over residential unit\u2019s L-shaped layout<\/h2>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Martins Architecture Office\u2019s <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.m-ao.pt\/\">designers<\/a><\/strong> intentionally displace a\u00a0structural column from the central axis to generate a geometric interaction with the ceiling. The roof is pitched at the maximum allowed slope of 35%, resulting in varied interior ceiling heights that contribute to spatial differentiation within the house.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>A central chimney, which also functions as a structural element, anchors the patio composition. Its proportions were calculated to support the structure while allowing for an open connection between the living area and the swimming pool, eliminating the need for repetitive column placement along that interface.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>\t<!-- CLOSE ARTICLE CONTENT -->\n\t<\/p>\n<div class=\"fullwidth-image\"><\/div>\n<p>\t<!-- OPEN ARTICLE CONTENT -->\t<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>project info:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>name:<\/strong>\u00a0L shape house<br \/>\n<strong>architect:<\/strong>\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.m-ao.pt\/\">Martins Architecture Office<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/martinsarchitectureoffice\">@martinsarchitectureoffice<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>design team:<\/strong> Eva Martins, Joana Moreira, Jos\u00e9 Martins, Miguel Pereira<\/p>\n<p><strong>area:<\/strong> 240 sqm<\/p>\n<p><strong>location:<\/strong> Guimar\u00e3es, Portugal<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>designboom has received this project from our\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.designboom.com\/readers-submit\">DIY submissions<\/a>\u00a0feature, where we welcome our readers to submit their own work for publication. see more project submissions from our readers\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.designboom.com\/readers\/\">here.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>edited by: christina vergopoulou | designboom<\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/www.designboom.com\/architecture\/sculptural-chimney-l-shaped-house-martins-architecture-office-portugal-05-25-2025\/\">sculptural chimney pierces L-shaped house by martins architecture office in portugal<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.designboom.com\/\">designboom | architecture &amp; design magazine<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Martins Architecture Office crafts L-shaped house in Guimar\u00e3es \u00a0 Martins Architecture Office\u2019s residential project in Guimar\u00e3es, Portugal, adopts an L-shaped configuration, determined by both spatial logic and functional requirements.
