<img src="https://archinect.gumlet.io/uploads/vt/vt9srot013gio1zm.jpg?fit=crop&auto=compress%2Cformat&enlarge=true&w=1200" border="0" /><p>Located in a suburban area of Póvoa de Varzim, a coastal town in <a href="http://archinect.com/features/tag/150883/portugal" target="_blank">Portugal</a> known unsurprisingly for its fish and beach resorts, sits a stark white home. Inserted into a gridded plot and enclosed by fragmented gardens and paved areas, House L27, stands apart from its neighbors. Designed by José Cadilhe of <a href="http://www.dionisolab.com/" target="_blank">dIONISO LAB</a>, the home plays with the standard geometry of the surrounding construction by offering a more fluid alternative in which the exterior becomes the central, organizing space. </p>
