The villa is located in an elevated area with a strong slope in the city of Leiria, Portugal. The conditions of the subdivision suggested a volumetry of a tower, a viewpoint over the city. One of our premises was that the social areas were located on the upper floors and the swimming pool on the roof, to enjoy the 360º view. The house is the transformation of a regular cobblestone with the rotation on an axis that generated a new, more plastic shape, which optimizes the sun exposure and allows areas of balconies, shading and circulations, from the ground to the roof, being a ladder from earth to heaven.
