The wide glass façade invites light to come in, providing natural lighting which reveals a myriad of colors, reflections, and shadows. It is ubiquitous transparency, which absorbs and transports the tranquility of the Douro landscape to the interior spaces. On the first floor, the sharing of moments: conviviality, games, and meals. On the second floor the introspection, in a contemplative lounge, overlooking the river, where a library invites the mind to travel beyond the Douro hills and valleys.
