THE WAY
Anchored on the edge of a cliff on the Algarve coast , the mirador faces the immensity of the Atlantic ocean. The position on the site provides a privileged view of the surroundings, situated in the direction parallel to the ruins, seeks to establish a dialogue between intervention and context.

The program is solved in a single piece, which can be read as a monomaterial structure that gives continuity to an existing path, which remains at the top level of the border line, and subtly detaches from the ground leading the visitor towards the horizon.
The search for harmony between opposites, and the balance between architecture and nature, creates a place of memory and contemplation, lengthens a way to be taken, where the only sound is the noise of the sea.
