The house partially rests on the dune, leaning towards the east, the street and the Ria de Aveiro.
The access to the main entrance is made by a gentle staircase, that also rests on the dune. This entire floor relates with the landscaped land to the west, where the swimming pool is located. The first floor volume rests on the one on the ground floor, moving to the west, giving dynamism to the whole.
