Boulder House
Monsaraz
The 80 square meter Boulder house is a stunning example of organic architecture with a strong connection to the megalithic heritage of the Alentejo region of Portugal. Built around a boulder, the house seamlessly blends into the natural landscape, providing a unique and peaceful environment. The vernacular architecture of the region is reflected in the use of traditional materials such as stone and timber, adding to the building’s organic feel. This house is the perfect spot to relax and take in the beautiful surroundings, with large windows providing ample natural light and breathtaking views. The combination of organic architecture and a strong connection to the area’s cultural heritage makes this a true work of art.
