Rua Costa do Castelo是一条环绕圣若热城堡山丘的道路，其高度明显低于其城墙，因此面向道路的建筑往往在其上层后面有绿色空间。这些花园具有倾斜的水平，覆盖了建筑体量和城堡墙壁之间的空间，深度不一。
Rua Costa do Castelo is a road that surrounds the hill of Castelo de São Jorge at a level significantly lower than that of its walls, so the buildings that face onto the road often have green spaces behind their upper floors. The gardens, with sloping levels, cover the spaces between the built volumes and the walls of the castle to variable depths.
这个项目涉及到建造一个全新的房子，在地面以上有五层，其中最后一层，也就是最深的一层，背离了现有的街帘线。该建筑的独特之处在于它的两面性。在前四层，房子与历史建筑的外墙对齐，而在第五层，它变成了一个城市别墅，在形态上不受限制，并且由于它与其他墙壁之间的开放空间而变得更加有趣。
This project involves the construction of a completely new house with five floors above ground level, the last of which, the deepest, is set back from the line of the existing street curtain. The uniqueness of the building lies in its twofold nature. For the first four stories the house is aligned with facades of historic buildings while on the level of the fifth story it is transformed into an urban villa, morphologically unrestricted and made even more interesting by the open space that separates it from the other walls.
从截面上看，可以欣赏到布局的复杂性和空间的顺序，在街道上的有顶凉亭里有车库。房间的顺序是这样安排的：在前庭之后，可以进入书房-图书馆，然后是卧室，最后是房子里最有社会性的区域，在花园层，厨房、餐厅和休息室向游泳池开放。游泳池被一块无障碍的钢筋混凝土板覆盖，使其成为一个类似于仙人掌的结构，从而使其更加亲密。
In section it is possible to appreciate the complexity of the layout and sequence of spaces from the covered loggia that contains the garage at street level. The sequence of rooms is laid out so that after the vestibule there is access to a study-library, then the bedrooms and finally to the most social zone in the house, on the garden level, with the kitchen, dining room and lounge opening onto the swimming pool. This is made more intimate by an accessible reinforced concrete slab which covers part of it, so turning it into a structure like a nymphaeum.
